This year, Franklin wants to mark its legacy, and has called for donations to establish a new chemistry laboratory, “Lab21”.

The struggles in adjusting to social distancing, missing out on special occasions, and accepting a slower life have impacted greatly. Nevertheless, the crisis has taught FUS Class ’21 resilience, appreciation, self-care, and to embrace new skills and hobbies.

In fact, we classify this need as the international imperative in education.
