This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at Rutgers chapter.

Okay, so it’s that time of year again….the time we’ve all been dreading. You know what I’m talking about. It’s finals week. As you cozy up in the library with your notes, highlighters, and textbooks, be sure to take a break with some of these stress release events. All these events and more can be found here.

  • All throughout finals week, the Chang Library will be hosting an event called “Stress-Free Zone with Crash Cart”. The Chang Library will be offering free supplies to help you survive finals week. Be sure to stop by!
