What it is

The night before finals week: therapy dogs, free coffee and snacks, chair massage, a quiet room, and craft tables, open late. Run by the counseling center and student government.

The library goes to 24 hours for the two weeks around finals; the 24-hour study zone is always open.

Details

When: December 9, 2026–27 academic year. Check the live calendar in MyPorter for the exact time.

Where: Founders Union.

Who it's for / cost: Free.

Type: Student life.

Getting there and getting in

The campus is 86 acres and nothing is more than a ten-minute walk from anything else; see the building directory for Founders Union. Accessible routes and entrances are on the accessible campus map. For an in-person event that lists registration, register through the office below; walk-ins are usually fine for anything marked open or free.

What to expect when you arrive

No registration is required for this one — arrive any time during the listed window and expect a short check-in table near the entrance if the event runs one.

If you can't make it

Many events like this repeat each semester or year — filter the full calendar by "Student life" to find the next one. Not every session is recorded; if this one matters and you cannot attend, ask Counseling Services directly whether materials or a recap will be available afterward.

Fictional information

UW–Porter Falls is a work of parody. This event, its date, venue and details are invented; nothing here announces a real event.
