Adventurous moving season into our new building

Dear Friends and Alumni!
Guess from where I am writing!  I am sitting in my beautiful new office in our gorgeous new building, the Advanced Teaching and Research Building, or ATRB. 
After years of planning and countless meetings, almost our whole department has packed up laboratories and offices and set up shop in the ATRB.
