Summer Term 2024 On-campus Events

May 29 – August 14 – Summer Term Stress Relief Activities 

• May 29 – August 14: Stress Relief Activities   

• • Summer Term can be an overwhelming and stressful time due to the shortened sessions, and we have a way to help get you through! Upstairs on the second floor there is a community coloring project and a community puzzle corner that you are welcome to participate in at any time.  Virtually, our Stress Relief Padlet is full of resources ranging from 5-minute meditation to fun games and crafts, to local hiking areas you can experience around Canton, NY. We hope these activities help you take a moment to relax while taking your summer courses! 

• May 29 – August 14: Coloring Stations in the Learning Commons Lobby 

• • Coloring stations will be available in the Learning Commons Lobby next to the staircase throughout the summer. Coloring sheets, activity sheets, colored pencils, and crayons will be provided at the coloring station.
