Stress is a common theme for students

Clusters of students huddled over their laptops or flipping through textbook pages until early hours of the morning is a typical scene in the Johnson Center Library at Mason. It’s also common to see Facebook statuses relaying the same message: papers, exams and projects are stressing students out.
