The Snow Storm Way

Well, just when we thought the weather was getting warmer, we get blasted with a blizzard! We hope everyone had a restful spring break and was safe and warm yesterday with the winter storm. Hopefully, despite the campus operation change, you were able to get back to your classes and coursework with ease. Looking ahead, we hope the weather won’t affect any of our upcoming events here at 71 North. We’re all way too excited for our final 3 Northern Exposures for the semester, with one happening this Friday, the 20th. Along with Demo Day next week, and Random Hacks of Kindness approaching soon as well. We hope to see many of you then!
