FINALS Pressure causes strange behavior When did you see otherwise normal Tech students go to pieces — totally out of character? During finals week. Finals, that time of year dreaded by veterans who knew the perils of the ensuing days and feared by rookies who had yet to face the harrowing experience. Studying, coffee, sleep and more studying. These are the elements that filled most student days — and nights — as they struggled to catch up or stay ahead for tests that make or break grade point averages and students. Horrified, border-line students await lest results with nails chewed-off and the telltale signs of sleepless nights from staying up to study. Students panicked at the thought of Albertson ' s running out of No-Doz or the Dunkin Donut across from cam- pus being out of coffee or midnight munchies. Midnight escapades for food became essential in hopes of staying awake long enough to take the test. Projects that were put off become of paramount importance, as architecture and advertising students alike prepared for final presentations. During finals week, cartoons were shown in the dormitories in an effort to break tension that was so thick it seemed to be touchable. Those who were noise makers and partiers throughout the year became intent studiers, often yelling Quiet! at those walking down the halls. Cold showers were a frequent occur- rence to wake up students trying to cram as much knowledge as possible into each small brain wrinkle. The uniform of the week became jeans and overalls, as comfort was the issue, not style. And when it was all over, each stu- dent breathed a sigh of relief, not really caring at that moment what the grades were, just glad to be finished with another year and another week of finals.
