As we wrap up the academic year and start to focus on final exams, we understand that this can be the most stressful time for students across campus.
We asked members of the TRU faculty and staff to provide a quick note to students who are studying for final exams. Below is what they said:
“It always seems impossible until it’s done” – Nelson Mandela
Christine Bovis-Cnossen, President and Vice-Chancellor (Interim)

nutrition, and hydration.
