Join the library for Stress Less Week!  

Stress is a real thing!

  • Final Exam week and the weeks leading up to it can be an especially stressful time for college students. While some stress may stem from poor time management and preparation, students may worry about how a low test score could affect their course grade and future goals. Plus, many courses have end-of-term projects due as well, which can make preparing for final exams more challenging (U.S. News & World Reports).
  •  A 2022 survey on stress in college found that exams were the biggest stressor among students, with accademic pressure being the third-highest factor. More than 89% of students said they felt stress from exams, and nearly 74% said studying brought them stress (U.S. News & World Reports).

The library team has been in your shoes, and we want to relieve some stress. Below is a schedule of events to help you relax, prepare for finals, and take care of yourself! 

  • Start out by viewing our Academic Video Online and Films on Demand for stress management ideas!
