Club Lib...the New Place to Be


During the months of November and December, the libraries of colleges and universities across the nation have an influx of students. This is no coincidence, it's Finals time!

Professors like to assign all papers, quizzes, tests and final exams around the same time as they rush to get the last of their grades for report cards. By now one would think they'd realize it's not fair to students but that is not the case. While some professors try to make their assignments easier the work seems to still pile up.

When the workload gets high a student goes into overdrive and heads straight for the library. In the month of December I've seen more people at the library than at a wet t-shirt party in Cancun during Spring Break. The library has become so much populated that it has been renamed "Club Lib".

For the past two weeks and for the beginning of the next, like my peers I will be at Club Lib until the early hours of the morning. However, don't be fooled, just because it is technically the library doesn't mean much, the same crazies at the real club show up to Club Lib too.
