  Hello ENST and E&C Community! Hope you did something amazing on Earth Day last week. There was a lot going on... We have 10 transfer students just added to our listserv, so welcome to them! This is our weekly digest of information from the Department chair about the events happening on and around campus, to keep us all connected and informed. In other exciting news, so far we have 63 confirmed new students coming to ENST in the fall! This is almost double our usual number, and that's just HUGE news.
