Finals Week Stress Relief Activity Run Down

Thank you to everyone who helped with Finals Week activities!

  • We sent 75 pet grams! 
  • Health Sciences Library tabled 4 times outside of the library and in the School of Nursing. Each time they tabled, they had around ~65 students stop by. They gave out snack bags, fidget toys, library swag, and did mystery date with a book.
  • Ellis Library had 100+ students stop by both days they tabled.
  • Vet Med Library left out snacks and fidget toys for their students
  • Journalism Library hosted a lemonade stand as well as a DIY Candy Salad Bar (in place of our trail mix bar that we normally put out). So far, we’ve seen 51 people stop by the lemonade stand and I would geusstimate ~70 for the candy salad. We don’t get total numbers on the candy salad until the end of the week (we put out a box of 200 ziplock bags for people to mix their candy in and then count the leftover bags at the end of the day on Friday).
  • Engineering Library has 80 students stop by for their trail mix bar and about 60 students for their Kittens in the Library.
