Finals are here in a big way, and College of Charleston students are ready for them thanks to hours in the library, one-on-one meetings with professors and study breaks with puppies. The puppies are an important part of finals readiness.

Here are a handful of Instagram photos showing what #CofCFinals prep looks like from behind your laptop, textbook or periodic table of elements tumbler:

Show up, ask questions, study, repeat. Instagrammer @Maxipad2014 has got it down.

rachelannen4. Reuniting with sunlight.

After thoroughly taking advantage of the Nathan and Marlene Addlestone’s special finals hours (24/7), reintroducing your skin to the sun can be a little challenging. @Rachelannen did it with a casual stroll past the American Theater, which offered a nice message for students.

 

devoneva5. Taking a stab at stress relief.

For part of a communication capstone called Wired and Inspired, @Devoneva and her fellow students had studiers pop balloons to help them relax and to inflate their pre-finals self esteem with encouraging messages in the balloons.

Do you have a good luck charm? @Ashleybp4 hoped her periodic table of elements cup would bring her some good fortune on her chemistry exam!
