It’s final week, and sure—the pressure’s thick in the air. But not for the reason you might think. I know what you’re imagining: brutal exams worth 70% of your grade, sleepless nights, caffeine-fueled panic. But hold up. That’s not the Zippy way.

Here at Akron, final week isn’t a gauntlet of despair. It’s more like the victory lap. Why?…
