As the school year began this semester things started to feel, well normal for the first time since the pandemic began back in 2020.
It’s fair to say that the past two years have given most of us renewed perspective, and possibly a better appreciation for the simple things in life.
We caught up with some members of the BSU community to ask them what they are most thankful for this year.
