Monday kicks off finals week here at Michigan State University, and with stress levels high there are a few places on campus you can go to relax and unwind.
"Get some fresh air. Walk along the river, take in some of the beautiful campus scenery," exclaimed Kat Cooper, MSU Director of Student Life and Engagement.
From the waves crashing, to the wildlife, taking a study break at the foot of the Red Cedar River is the go-to spot on campus for students to find tranquility in the midst of finals week chaos,
"I like walking by the river. It’s nice and peaceful," stated one MSU student.
"My favorite place probably is right by the river. Right where the dam, where it gets really fast. Lots of people sit over there," explained another MSU student.
But, if you are looking for something a little more colorful and reflective of the season, "The Beal Botanical Garden is a great place to wander. You’ve got the water and the plants in that location," described Cooper.
In between studying and taking breaks in nature, it is also important to be mindful of giving your body what it needs to succeed...
"Make sure that you give yourself enough time at night to relax before you go to sleep so then you can get a good night sleep, and wake up in the morning and do it all over again," stated one MSU student.
