As 2013 comes to a close, it’s time to look back at what this past semester brought. Now, I was going to do something catchy like ’13 Photos That Captured 2013,’ but there were just too many good photos to leave out. So after a lot of strange number crunching trying to come up with a number of photos to include, I have arrived at the magical number 28. It’s actually not that magical, its just the number of photos I tagged as I went through the 8,000 photos I took this semester (yup, this gallery features just under 0.5% of the photos that I took…).
From homemade food and strange friends to fighting for a good cause and great theatre, this look back at 2013 covers some fantastic moments caught both on and off campus this past semester. Here’s to great memories of 2013, and to all the fantastic things that 2014 has in store for all of us!
