Arkansas Union Open 24 Hours, Offers Study Rooms for Final Exams
The Arkansas Union will be open 24 hours beginning Friday, May 6, in preparation for finals. Study rooms will be devoted exclusively to final exam studying.
Additionally, the Union is setting aside specific rooms to assist students looking for a quiet place to study. Starting Friday afternoon, meeting rooms 507-511, located behind the Verizon Ballroom, will be available through Wednesday of finals week for students to quietly study alone or in groups. Union staff members will also come by periodically with snacks and encouragement for students hard at work.
In addition to open study spaces throughout the Arkansas Union, students may also book time in two private study rooms online at unionevents.uark.edu using their university ID and password.
