The Woman Is Required to Pay: Our favorites from TWIRP Week 2016

January 01, 2020

TWIRP Week is one of the Ouachita traditions that has always created an exciting and costume-filled start to the semester. Over the years the themes and events have changed, but one thing has remained the same -- The Woman Is Required to Pay. Similar to a Sadie Hawkins dance, the ladies are the ones doing the asking. However, we don't stop at just one event. TWIRP Week has a different event each night with a new theme and all sorts fun.

Each year there are so many great costumes and photos, but check out some of our favorite Instagrams from TWIRP Week 2016!
