The Pomodoro Technique is a beneficial way to avoid procrastination and effectively manage your time. The key to this technique is to focus your attention on a task for 25 minutes and then take a five-minute break.
Plan the task/work you plan to complete and set a 25-minute timer. Work on the task until the task is complete, and take a five-minute break after each 25-minute focused session. Try this technique to break down larger assignments or study sessions into smaller, more manageable sessions.

“What were you wearing?” is an all-too-common question asked of survivors of sexual assault. The Haven Project has partnered with Fashion Studies to bring awareness to this and other offensive questions that are put upon individuals who have experienced sexual violence, placing blame for a crime perpetuated against them.
Anonymous survivor stories from the IUP community will be on display from April 21 through April 25 in the Stapleton Library, first-floor atrium. You are invited to view this powerful and emotional display, which is dedicated to dispelling the myth that survivors provoke their assault based on how they were dressed.
