The fountain in the Library Quad at Sacramento State has been turned on until the end of finals week.

Mike Lee, vice president for Administration and chief financial officer for Sac State, said his office had received student requests to have the fountains turned on.

Since this is a stressful time of year for students, he said some students would like the nice visual and sound of a fountain. On Dec.3 he made the decision to turn the fountain on for students, Lee said.

The fountain at Serna plaza by the University Union may also be turned on.

Since the campus is planning to continue its water conservation efforts, the fountains will be turned off again after the week of finals— Dec. 14-18— Lee said.
