Time for finals and the holidays, Boilermakers!
Hello, Boilermakers,
You’ve made it to final exam time. This can certainly be an intense part of the semester, and I want you to know we are proud of your efforts. This is a time to demonstrate your knowledge and perseverance, and we believe in your ability to succeed. Your dedication makes our Purdue community in Indianapolis a special place.
Take care of yourself throughout the week, balancing study with rest and time with others to de-stress. Remember that you’re not in this alone. Purdue offers numerous resources online and in person to help you finish the semester with confidence, including tutoring through the ASC, support for polishing your papers at Purdue OWL and welcoming study spaces at the Student Center, math support at the MAC in Taylor Hall, and wellness support through CAPS in the Engineering and Technology Building.
As the holidays approach, I encourage you to celebrate your progress, spend time with those who matter most and recharge for the exciting opportunities ahead.
Wishing you the best on your finals and a season filled with joy.
Boiler Up!
David M. Umulis
Senior Vice Provost Purdue University for Indianapolis
