Ever wonder what students do when they aren't in class, studying, or working? We spoke to some of the top student leaders here on campus to see what they enjoy doing in their downtime, both on and off campus.

On-campus I love to sit around the fountain outside of the cafe. I can usually find friends there and I can take a break from studying and class. Off campus I love to unwind at Hawaii Nail & Spa (BEST nail salon in the area), Sushi, Inc. (Downtown St. Pete.), Ceviche (Tuesday nights is half off tapas!) and any of the surrounding beaches (the sunsets are to die for!).

Favorite Places to Unwind:
On campus, I like to unwind in the gym. The physical activity allows you to release any stresses that may have accumulated throughout the day and releases “happy endorphins” that keep you feeling great. Not to mention, everyone in there is very friendly, so the gym has become a small community of people I look forward to seeing every day. Off campus, I enjoy kayak fishing at Ft. Desoto. The water is relaxing, the fishing is great, and the dinner is even better!
