From a moonlight breakfast to puzzles and yoga to ice cream with CofC President Andrew T. Hsu, students have had a lot of ways to calm their nerves during finals with all the Cougar Countdown events happening this past week.

During Pretzels & Profs, students got the chance to unwind with some warm pretzels on Rivers Green and chat with a professor to get study tips.  (Photos by Heather Moran)
