Room 616 Closed for the Remainder of the Semester

Unfortunately, the college counseling team feels it is necessary to close Room 616 to students to use for quiet study or as a lunch space.  The college counselors have asked repeatedly over the semester for students to take responsibility for cleaning up after themselves.  Since lunch trays continue to be left in the room or placed just outside the door, tables are messy and crumb-filled, furniture is misused and not returned to

Math students question whether the shelving choices of Harris Teeter marketers are based on sugar content. Wow! FYI Raisin Bran has ginormous amounts of sugar.

The exams stumped this guy.

 In order to provide the best learning environment for academic success, the US library is now a “game free” zone. Students who choose to work in the US library agree to study quietly as each of us prepares for mid-term exams.  If you want to relax and play video games, update your fantasy football stats, watch YouTube videos, etc. please use the student commons. The game free zone is in effect during the library operating hours (7:30 am to 5:30 pm)  including lunch, break, and

student choice. 

Sophomores have the holiday spirit.

SEE YOU NEXT YEAR!!
