Five academic buildings across Penn State University Park have extended their hours to remain open 24/7 for students to use for studying for upcoming finals, the university announced. These buildings will remain open 24 hours a day from Thursday, April 30, through 11 p.m. on Friday, May 8.

The buildings affected will be Boucke, Hammond, Osmond, Thomas, and Willard. The HUB-Robeson Center will also remain open 24 hours.

There will be no need for students to reserve spaces in any of these buildings. Students looking for on-campus study space availability can do so through the Penn State Map and filter by Classroom Availability. This filter will allow students to find unoccupied classroom availabilities, daily schedules, and hours of operation for all General-Purpose Classrooms at University Park.
