De-stress Days may be just what the doctor ordered for students

For those students who may be feeling the stress of final exams, the Student Life department has simple remedy: "De-stress" Days on Wednesday, Thursday and Friday in the Atrium.

The days will feature a variety of activities from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. guaranteed to help you unwind a bit.

Student Life offers De-stress Days each semester around finals as a way to relax before a week of exams, said Amy Scott, director of student activities. Finals are Tuesday through Friday,
Dec. 14-17.


Here's what is planned for De-stress Days:


Wednesday
  • Decorate your own cookies
  • Crafts
  • Tarot card readings
  • Coloring
  • Area professionals will offer five-minute massages to help relieve pre-finals stress.
Thursday
  • ‘Big Red Chair’ photos. Students can sit in a huge inflatable red chair and have their photo taken with a friend or two. Oversized props will be available for students who want to get extra silly.
  • Massages
Friday
  • Moon bounce. Students can jump to their heart's content in an inflatable bounce house.
  • Students can decorate their own Christmas ornament from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. in the Campus Center. The event is sponsored by the Alcohol and Other Drug Awareness Committee (AODA). Students may take the ornament home with them or leave it on the Campus Center tree.
