For many students, midterm week consists of late-night studying and lots of stress. But as midterm week comes to an end, students have fall break to look forward to as their reward for all their hard work. It can serve as a light at the end of the tunnel for students who have just finished a challenging week of tests and projects.

Whether you go home, go on a fun trip, or stay on campus; there are plenty of fun activities to fill the free time during fall break. This four day weekend provides a great opportunity for students to catch up on sleep, enjoy spending time with friends and family and celebrate surviving their midterms. It is a chance to relax after working hard throughout the first half of the semester.

With that in mind, as we head into fall break it is important to check the syllabi for your classes so you know what the future holds when we come back. While it is important to take this time off to relax, by staying conscious about your upcoming course work will prevent you from being blindsided by assignments when classes start back up.

Take time over fall break to rejuvenate. The Blue & Gray staff wishes you a happy fall break. Enjoy your time off and come back ready to succeed during the second half of the semester.
