(KNSI) – College is hard enough when your only focus is on classroom lessons. For students who also happen to be a parent responsible for young children, there is an additional degree of difficulty.
Saint Cloud State University is trying to lighten the load by creating a Student Parent Study Room inside the library. The brand new space will have an open house on Tuesday, November 1st, from 2:00 to 3:30 p.m.
The purpose of the room is to allow student parents to work uninterrupted by providing their kids with toys or other supplies to keep them busy and entertained.
