It’s officially November, and the race is on as students partake in the widely known phenomenon of No-Shave November.

According to No-Shave.org, No-Shave November is a tradition that started in 2009, where men and women purposely avoid shaving. However, multiple sources confirm the origin of the modern tradition traces back to Australia in 2004, when a group of 30 men organized an event where they grew mustaches over the course of 30 days to raise awareness for prostate cancer.
