t is 3:30 AM and the day hovers between Tuesday an IVkdnesday. The air is heavy with a cloudy mixture of ic arette smoke, the aroma of heated grease and Java |s iam rising from endless cups of coffee. A cacophony of is ;jnds creates a constant crackling rumble of background Inhe. It is an ideal environment, according to some, for |s dying. lany students shun the conventional study shrines like tr i library or the dorm room and opt for the livelier atmo- ere of an all-night breakfast diner or coffee house. The library is full of extra students, Camailo Gomez-Rivas said, a junior comparative literature major. So you have to share a table. Gomez-Rivas prefers to study at the Waffle House at Five Points, citing advantages such as his ability to smoke, drink coffee and enjoy a comfortable table to himself. ChrissyVasquez, a senior majoring in education, likes to study at the Waffle House to smoke and escape the home interruptions such as the phone ringing. Here you are taken care of, Vasquez said. Looking forward to the waitress bringing the food provides needed breaks. While breakfast places such as Waffle House and the International House of Pancakes are popular, coffee houses such as the Athens Coffee House, Expresso Royale and Jittery Joe ' s also serve as study halls for some. Rebecca Montelro, a sophomore studying art education, spends almost three hours a day studying at Jittery Joe ' s. She says her steady stream of cigarettes and coffee inspire her to stay awake and alert. Other students who bring their notes and books to the coffee house admit that they probably could study better in a quieter setting, but they enjoy the social aspects of people-watching and seeing friends. Amy Jalutkewicz, a sophomore in journalism, says that she brings her books along to justify the excursion, but for the most part, they lie open on the table unread. Whether the din of the diner and the aura of the coffee house helps or hinders varies with each student. A sophomore in psychology, Brian Hightower, says that he used to try to hit the books at his favorite coffee house, but gave it up a long time ago because he found it impossible to study in such a busy place. Committed cafe scholars would disagree. -Christina Hull
