Okay, Heels. It’s exam time. While we can’t give you more sleep, we do have a full slate of events and activities to keep your stress down and your energy up until you make it to the finish line.
All events are free. We hope you’ll join us in thanking our co-sponsors and collaborators who have made these events possible: Edible Campus, Herban UNC, Stampede of Love, UNC Healthy Heels Ambassadors, and UNC Superhero Project.
If you’re just looking for a place to study, you’ll find extra hours at most campus libraries.
