The holidays are just around the corner and so is exam season! During exam prep, it’s important to take study breaks and focus on stress management. Take some time to relax with fun-filled Exam Cram activities from Dec. 1-13!

Exam Cram brings extended library hours and more time to grab a quick pick-me-up coffee from Argo. The Mary Idema Pew Library helps you find the perfect study spot by providing you with real-time updates online on how busy the library is during the week.

The library will be open 7 a.m. on Dec. 2 until 2 a.m. on Dec. 6. It will close briefly to give us all some well-deserved sleep before opening again at 8 a.m. on Dec. 7. Since the library will be open around the clock, you'll have plenty of time to get your study on!

Looking for an exciting new way to fill your study break? Exam Cram week has plenty of opportunities for you to give your brain a rest and take some time to relax! From activities such as the free Awkward Holiday Photobooth in the Kirkhof Lobby to cookie decorating in the Laker Store, you’re sure to find an event that you and your friends can enjoy. There’s even free fitness classes offered throughout the week to get your blood pumping and help you de-stress!
