Sometimes you just need a moment to breathe, laugh, and connect with people who get it. Our scholars connected for First Gen Friday Lunch and it was the perfect mid-semester reset 💙 See y’all in November for the next one! 🥳 #JSUFirstGen #TheeFirstToFinish by @firstgenjsu

Midterms don’t have to mean meltdown. 📚Here’s how to study smarter, not harder:Start early: Spread your studying across several days. Use active recall: Quiz yourself instead of just rereading notes.Mix it up: Rotate between subjects to keep your brain sharp.Practice past tests: Old quizzes, practice problems, or study guides help you see what’s most important.Rest your mind: A good night’s sleep boosts memory way more than an all-nighter. by @firstgenjsu
