Night Owls is The Claremont Colleges Library finals-week programming, activities, and events. The goal of Night Owls is to provide opportunities for students to take brain breaks, de-stress, relax, and win prizes! Typically, Library staff keep the building open 24 hours during this time and provide frequent snacks, stress breaks, and activities to support Claremont Colleges students as they complete their final projects and study for exams.
