She holds the opinion of many students at Martin Luther who have to uti- lize their study hall. We often only consider the stu- dents' views on this subject. Teachers are also involved with our study halls. They convert their time and energy into supervision during one of their free periods. Mis, Shannon said, ' 'I think study 'halls are worthwhile, if a student uses the time wisely. Two-thirds of the students are glad that the study halls are kept quiet so they can use the time to their best ad- vantage. ' ' Student Life 3

Stairs, the library, buses, or even a classroom. What do they all have in common? They're used, if infrequently, as studying areas. Studying, that most dreaded of all school activities, is put off until Monday morning, 7:55 anyday of the week, anytime but ........ NOW! ! ! The best excuses for avoiding it are: l'm tired. ' 'My boy! girl friend is coming over. ' ' ' 'Aunt Nancy is coming over. I just have to see this week's 'Charlie's Angels' . All or any excuses to ignore the prob- lem. Of comse, that problem never goes away. Try as you might,the test comes and you're stuck! lt's incredible that so much knowledge can be crammed so fast into such a small container. Freshmen are fairly new at cram- ming, Sophomores a bit more poised in their endeavors . By Ju- nior year, pros have been devel- oped and for Seniors, cramming is simply a way of life. But back to the matter at hand, study places. They can tend to get a bit rowdy after a while, over crowded, but most often tedious ! On occasion, studying in some places can turn into an amorous adventtu-e fwith a little planning, of coursej. Still there is much to be said for really utilizing Martin Luther's fa- cilities. lt's nice to pass or do well on a test, getting homework done helps a lot, but most of all studying gives you something to do during a free period! 2 Student Life 1 ill'MfxNN -mn ta , .wi p 1 ,,.,..,.v...--.ncliliff - , l i- 1 l 1 Freshmen have an encounter with Scoblic, the library skills primer.
