FYE-1220-KE-Honors First Year Seminar

480 × 480 I hope that everyone is enjoying their break. If you are lucky, you don't have to worry about typing up two essays, applying for scholarships, or having to study your butt off for a chemistry final. All that aside, I hope that we all will be able to take advantage of the Black Friday sales.
