Combat the stress of late-night studying and the pressure of going it alone by taking advantage of the many resources to do your best.
OCC’s Finals Frenzy tradition is back December 2-6. This week-long student event is filled with giveaways, resources and activities, both on campus and online, to recharge and relax. The event is sponsored by OCC’s Office of Student Engagement, Counseling, Academic Support Centers, Libraries and the many College services dedicated to your success.
Gain the additional confidence and skills you need to pass this semester’s finals with flying success.
Here’s what to expect:
Resources – Don’t go it alone! Be sure to utilize the free resources at all OCC libraries, including free printing during finals week, or help from the experts reviewing your final paper, bibliography or works cited pages.
Recharge and Refuel – Skip the vending machine and recharge at an OCC campus library with snacks and study time; or join others at the Highland Lakes campus Academic Support Center (ASC) and get inspired by creating your own vision board in under an hour—free materials and cookies provided!
Relax – How can I calm myself? “Take five” to color stress away at the Student Centers on each campus. Or take a lunch hour art therapy break at the Auburn Hills or Royal Oak campus for activities to help you unwind and de-stress.
Giveaways – OCC’s Office of Student Engagement has Grab and Go Finals Frenzy Survival Kits at all campus libraries. The Highland Lakes campus has additional giveaways at the library and counseling office and inspiration bags at the ACCESS office; the Orchard Ridge ASC has study supply giveaways – all while supplies last.
A full list of activities can be found on the Finals Frenzy website.
