Get Up and Get Outside!

Eating at your desk day after day? “Staying inside, in the same location, is really detrimental to creative thinking,” says Professor Kimberly Elsbach from the University of California. “Creativity and innovation happen when people change their environment, and especially when they expose themselves to a nature-like environment.”

So why not get outside and try out one the many Recharge Spaces on campus? See you outside.
