This week marked the last week of classes for Northeastern students. Huskies were busy studying for finals and completing end-of-semester projects. Researchers, including those in the REID Lab and the Speech, Hearing, and Communication (SHAC) Lab, were also working hard as they conducted various experiments. Meanwhile, students on the table tennis team showed off their skills and challenged each other to a friendly competition.
