For students who have long breaks between class, time can feel like its being wasted. If you don't want to go home in between, here are some things you can do instead.

1. Get ahead at the Park Library

Try to get some homework done, read a book, or take a rest.

2. Explore campus

Campus in fall is beautiful! Take the time to look around

3. Eat at the Down Under Food Court

Pasta, pizza, salad bar, and more. Pass the time by eating a nice lunch.

4. Head to the Student Activities Center

Get in a quick workout, shoot some pool, or watch an IM sport.

5. Go to the Bovee University Center

Something is always going on outside of here. There is usually an RSO outside of the UC that would love to talk to you between class.

6. Shop at the Book Store

They have so many CMU items to choose from, it's a great way to pass the time.

7. Call your parents

They'll be surprised and happy that you were thinking of them.

8. Stop by the Center for Inclusion & Diversity

Here you can find groups like Multicultural Academic Student Services, LGBTQ Services, Office of Diversity Education, Native American Programs, the Student Transition Enrichment Program, and much more.

9. Check out the Mary Ellen Brandell Volunteer Center

Find a way to get involved! They would love to tell you about their many options for volunteer work

Time is a very valuable thing in college. Try not to waste it by making some changes to your usual routine.
