A new year and a new semester got underway in January 2022. The Boston campus also saw its first snowfall of the year (but it won’t be the last). The university celebrated Martin Luther King Jr. Day with a virtual event that featured a top civil rights attorney at the Justice Department speaking about voting rights. Come see all that’s abuzz on campus through the eyes of News@Northeastern’s award-winning photographers.
