NGS 2022 Sacramento: Day 3

 Friday, 27 May 2022

 

   Day 3! Friday seems to be the highlight of every NGS conference. With the anticipation of the big banquet and awards given out later in the evening, the fact that we’re all adjusted to class times, and the layout of the conference center, everyone seems to be more in-tune and cheerful. At the banquet, I chose a far-off corner with no one there yet, and then, one by one, my friends started showing up!
