2021 is over. What did this year bring to our Arts et Metiers community in the US, to our school and la SOCE?
In 2021 the world was still in pandemic mode as COVID-19 continued its worldwide spread. We hope that the new 2022 will be better with more face-to-face social interactions, less stress and more exciting and new projects. Hopefully in 2022 the pandemic will not dominate our lives.
