'Tis the season of festivities and finals! Nothing feels better wrapping up your final projects and exams. Here’s our list of items and tips to get you through—the Fairfield way!
1. 24/7 Access to the Library
Not only is the library open 24/7 during finals weeks, but they also have a variety of resourceful events too! Take part in guided study sessions, therapy dog visits, and a fan favorite reading day tradition – Cram Jam.
2. Hot Chocolate Station in the Tully Dining Commons
Nothing beats a warm hot chocolate on a cold day–especially when it comes from the Tully Dining Commons. Choose from a variety of toppings to customize it exactly how you like it for a study-session sweet treat—Whipped cream is a must!
3. Relax, Unwind, and Have Fun with Fairfield@Night
After a long day of studying, grab your friends and head to a Fairfield@Night event. Bring home a stress ball, a snow globe, or even a study buddy to help get you through the home stretch of studying.
4. A Stag Study Playlist
Nothing helps get you motivated to hit the books quite like a playlist full of your favorite songs. Relive some of your first semester memories and get into the holiday season with a playlist full of Stag favorites.
5. Dunkin’ or Starbucks or Peets
The real question is, which coffee will you get? Lucky for Stags, Fairfield’s campus has all three which means you don’t have to choose! Take a study break for a hot coffee or tea and a snack for that much needed energy boost.
6. Rent a Room in the Library
Library study rooms are the perfect place to put the finishing touches on those big group projects. They fill up quick so book them early!
7. Take a Study Break!
Study hard, but find the balance to focus on mind, body, and spirit. Some of the best memories for students can be made through taking a step back from the books and the and taking a stroll through campus, a quick workout at the RecPlex, a dinner downtown, or a trip to your favorite local coffee shop before you all head home for winter break.
