Variety of events to take place before finals
There are no classes Thursday and Friday to give students extra time to prepare for exams.
In between study sessions, however, students can attend a variety of events.
Larzelere Hall is having an “End-of-the-Year Barbecue” at 5 p.m. Wednesday in the courtyard between Larzelere and Robinson halls. Food and games will be available for students who attend.
Larzelere resident Megan Vansumeren went to the barbecue last year, but won’t be able to go this year.
“I liked that it was setup like a picnic and we got to be outside,” the Jackson sophomore said. “I wish I could go, but it’s during an inconvenient time.”
“Gentle Friday” will take place from noon to 5 p.m. on Warriner Mall.
Participants at the 2006 Game Live U College Tour can preview 25 of the latest games for Playstation 2, Xbox 360, Nintendo GameCube and PC Systems on a 50-screen PC and video display.
“I love the name (Gentle Friday),” said Clarkston sophomore Rick Winbigler. “I’ll definitely be there – especially if I get to play ‘Madden’ on one of the big screens.”
Next week, April 30 through May 3, is “Finals Focus.”
The Student Activity Center will be open from 10 p.m. to midnight and the Charles V. Park Library will be open from 10 p.m. to 1 a.m. to serve students as they focus on exams.
Free food will be available and students can sign up for nightly prize drawings including the chance to win a semester of free books.
