Relieve Stress During Exams with Cougar Countdown

It’s that time of year again: crowds of students are cramming for finals in Addlestone Library – and puppies are on campus to keep bleary-eyed Cougars from stressing too much.

The College of Charleston’s end-of-semester Cougar Countdown begins on Dec. 4, 2017, with a bevy of activities aimed at giving students academic, physical and emotional support as well as a little fun until the last day of exams on Dec. 13.
