It’s that time of the semester again.  The time when we can get together and reflect on all of the crazy and wonderful things that E-52 has been able to do this semester.  Whether it be running around with our heads cut off or performing a serious monologue in a funny accent, the members of E-52 have accomplished a lot this Fall.  So to celebrate that, the Crew takes a minute (or 30) to reminisce on their experience and we hope you will too.
