On October 19, Phi Theta Kappa students Alison Majors, Skylar Hodson, Sarah Dierflinger, Noah Pettey, Jordan Berkley, Remington Covey, Tristan Dierflinger, Araceli Landaverde, and Jose Fuentes traveled to Jefferson TX for the 22nd annual Bigfoot Conference. Jefferson has been dubbed both “the most haunted town in Texas” and the “Bigfoot Capitol of Texas,” and so it was the perfect place for our chapter to continue their research on local folktales.
