Favorite UConn Memory

One thing I miss most about my time at UConn was being able to walk into the lab and just have spontaneous hangouts with other BADCO members. It was such a great way to get instant emotional or instrumental support. Those unplanned hangouts are some of my fondest memories from graduate school!
