Library extends hours for finals week

To ease the pressure of final exams and to motivate students, several activities are going on during the finals week on campus. Laure Sinn, Student Activities Coordinator, confirmed that Student Center is going to provide free massage for students from 10 a.m.-1 p.m. Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday.

In addition to that, healthy snacks will be handed to the students at the same times. Moreover, there will be a free finals breakfast for students from 9-10 p.m. on Tuesday in the Cafeteria. Students do not have to use their meal plan to eat, but should bring their student ID for verification, Kathy Mason, office assistant, said Wednesday.

The Strive Learning Center will be open during finals week from 7:30 a.m.-5 p.m. each day for whoever wants to study for the exams; however, tutors will not be available unless there is an appointment, Frances Gonzalez, Learning Center coordinator, said Tuesday.

The Library plans to extend its hours from 7:30 a.m.-midnight on Monday through Wednesday. It will resume normal operations on Thursday, and will be open from 7:30 a.m.-10 p.m. The Library is open from 7:30 a.m.-4:30 p.m. on Friday, and will remain closed during the weekend.
“We encourage students to get enough sleep at night so they don’t overstress themselves, make sure that you eat enough, and do not go out to party at night because that will not help you, and if you feel stressed go talk to somebody,” Sinn said.
