About this Event

Finals Week is one of the most stressful times of year for Blue Hens—and one of the most crowded in Morris Library. It’s not uncommon to see students hunker down for hours at a time, even overnight, to study and finish final projects. Oftentimes, these students are so focused on studying, they forgo eating, stretching or taking mental breaks.

To support the physical, mental and emotional wellbeing of our Blue Hens, the Library, Museums and Press provides programming during Finals Week designed to nurture the whole student. During the 2022-23 academic year, these “Stress Less” programs – including yoga, therapy dog visits, coloring and free pizza and hot chocolate – reached more than 1,300 students.

Your support today will expand the slate of programming, ensuring more students can benefit from meaningful and much-needed wellness activities during the most stressful time of the semester. Thank you!
