Learn­ing com­mons of­fer­ing fi­nals cop­ing events for stu­dents

 -  -  93


As fi­nals week is com­ing upon us, the stress in each stu­dent has risen to con­cern­ing lev­els. It seems that there is no es­cape to the rest­less nights, the notes to read and the slide shows to re­view. Due to these high lev­els of stress, every year the Learn­ing Com­mons puts on spe­cial events to give stu­dents a break from fi­nals and study­ing.

Here is the schedule for activities during finals week. 1)      The tutoring schedule for Final Exam week is now up.  Spots are limited; so sign up soon: www.bethel.mywconline.com   The Learning Commons will open early on Sunday, at 3 pm, if you’re looking for a place to study. 2)      The link to sign up for 10-minute massages (Monday, April 30, 12:30-4:30 pm) is: https://bethel_college.formstack.com/forms/finals_week_massage_sp2018 3)      A dog will be available for petting in the Center for Academic Success (AC 033) on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday of Finals Week (May 1-3).  Come in any day between 8-5 to pet her and lower your blood pressure. 4)      Friendly cats will be available for petting on the first floor of the AC on Tuesday, May 1, from 2-4 pm (sorry, no kittens this semester). 5)      Check out some of the following activities, in/around the Learning Commons Sunday-Wednesday:
