Students begin exodus as semester ends

Just two more days remain of the spring semester at Pittsburg State University, but already some students are on the move. Students who have taken their last final exam began moving out of the university's residence halls today. That gradual exodus will continue until Saturday, when all students are required to move out or transition to Bowen Hall, which will remain open for students enrolled in summer school.

Another sign of the end of the semester is the posting of summer hours for the Overman Student Center, which begin on Monday, May 22. From then until the end of the second summer session in July, the building will be open from 6 a.m. until 4:30 p.m. Monday through Friday. It will be closed on weekends. The Barnes and Noble Bookstore will remain open until 7 p.m. on Friday, May 19, and from 8 a.m. until noon on Saturday, May 20, for persons looking for last-minute graduation gifts. After that, the bookstore will be open from 9 a.m. until 4 p.m. Monday through Friday. Commerce Bank's summer hours will be 8:30 a.m. until 4:30 p.m. Monday through Friday.

All retail areas of Sodexho Retail Food Service will close at 2 p.m. on Friday, May 19 and will reopen on June 5. The summer hours are 7:30-10 a.m. Monday through Friday for Jazzman's Café, and 10 a.m. until 1:30 p.m. Monday through Friday for the Gorilla Crossing. The Axe Grind and KTC Café will be closed for the summer.
