Congratulations to Study Stop “Get Caught Studying” winners for the fall 2014 semester. Maricruz Mejía-Rapalo for September, Macy Potts for October, and Abdulrahman Abdelzaher for November/December. Throughout the fall semester Study Stop staff made surprise visits to the five Study Stop locations on City and East Campus and “caught students studying.” Students received small incentive items and an entry form to participate in an end-of-the month drawing for additional prizes. UNL departments and downtown Lincoln businesses contributed to supplying the incentive items and prizes.

Study Stop offers a space to study on your own, work in groups, or meet with a learning consultant. FREE Coffee, tea, and hot chocolate is provided! Spring operations are currently up and running. More information about locations and hours of operation is available at http://go.unl.edu/studystop14-15.
