Happy Start of the Semester!

Though the rain may be gloomy, it can also remind us that spring is right around the corner! Pretty soon we will see the sun and flowers that mark springtime. We hope the start of the term has gone smoothly and your semester will be fruitful! In the meantime, happy Lunar New Year (Feb. 10) and be sure to stay up-to-date on all of the events we have planned!
