The school year is coming to an end and finals, along with the stress that comes with them, are quickly approaching.
ΒιΆΉΣ°ΤΊ students, faculty and staff can melt their stress away at the Stress-Free Zone event held by University Libraries on May 5 and 6 from 3-5 p.m. Therapy dogs will return to the first floor of the University Library to help reduce the pressures of finals week and offer a study break to students.
Jasmine Jefferson, First-Year Experience librarian, said students really enjoy the Stress-Free Zone event.
βIt really gives students the opportunity to take a break from their studies and relax,β Jefferson said. βThey love petting the dogs, the free snacks and the chance to hang out for a little bit before getting back to work.β
Refreshments, such as popcorn and pop, also will be provided. All ΒιΆΉΣ°ΤΊ State students, faculty and staff are invited to attend the event.
In addition, the library is currently open 24 hours a day through Friday, May 9, for finals.
