Amilda Williams, a freshman from Chicago studying early childhood development education, keeps an eye on her two-month-old son Kenneth Ragans Wednesday at Morris Library. The library provides a room with toys, computers and solitude where students with children can go to study. Williams said she forgot about this room but believes it will be very helpful in the future. Along with services such as study rooms, Williams said the university helps her balance going to school and raising a child in other ways, too. “They help me as much as they possibly can with things like daycare,” she said.Jessica Tezak Daily Egyptian
