So we made it past spring break and the end is in sight. Now you just need to make the final stretch. Did you know there is a workshop for that? Well, there is!

Making it Through the Final Stretch
Are you stressed out over all the exams, papers, and group projects that will soon be taking up your time? Learn how to stay motivated, manage the stress, and find the time to do all of the things you need (plus some time for fun!). We will also review strategies for effective test taking.

Tuesday, April 23 from 12:30-1:30pm

Ut Prosim
Do you know your blood type? Are you a universal donor or a rare recipient? Either way, giving one point of blood can save three lives.  One hour of your time + three lives saved = Winning.

American Red Cross will be at the War Memorial Gym today from 11 – 5.
