Katelyn Tibbits loves finals week. Many students hate it, but she says it is her favorite time of year.
“I love the time to socialize, it makes me less stressful,” the LSC junior said. “I can take an hour break from studying and just relax.”
Now that Thanksgiving break is over, and we have been back at school for a week, the rest of the semester will fly by. With only one week left before the last day of classes, students will undoubtedly be rushing to complete late assignments, cramming for last minute tests, and staying up way past their bed times. There is however, a “getaway” if you will, from all the studying and cramming and stress!
The Campus Activities Board puts on “study breaks” every year during finals week for students to take a break, get some free food and hang out with friends before going back to the stress-filled life they are living.
“I love it,” said Dan Haycook, a senior at Lyndon State. “I’ve been going for the four years that I have been here. My favorite is the breakfast night; there is just nothing better than breakfast in the middle of the night during the most stressful time of the year. “
The study breaks will begin December 11th with a make your own Sunday event, and continue the 12th, 13th, and 14th with other great specials. The 12th will showcase a late night breakfast event, which is notoriously the most popular event. On the 13th students can indulge in nachos with all the fixings, sour cream, salsa, jalapeños, etc. The fourth and final night will allow students to satisfy their sweet tooth with all you can eat fried dough.
All the events will begin at 9pm on their specific days and are put on in the dinning hall. Students will be able to plat board games or just relax over some quality food.
