“You Mean I Have To Study Too?” Being a student means a lot of things, but it primarily means that one spends a great deal of time studying. From accounting to zoology, there are books to be read, papers to write, speeches to give, and projects to complete. The questions of Why Study, How to Study, When to Study, and Where to Study con¬ fronts every scholar to be, and every student answers the above questions in his own way. With the question of Why Study? being the most promi¬ nent, one soon learns that if one chooses not to study, then the hopes of becoming a successful scholar quickly disappear. So, in order to be successful, we conclude that study¬ ing is worth our time. The questions that follow, then, are When, Where, and How. First of all, most any time’s a good time for studying, whether it be before class, during class, after class, or the night before the big test. Where to Study offers a wide range of choices; dorm, lounge, library, chapel, local coffee shop, or in class buildings. And we answer the final question of How to Study, with friends, without friends, with food, without food, while wide awake, or through the magical forces of osmo¬ sis. Yes, students have to study too. 20 Student Life: Studying

“If I live here, sleep here, and study here, it looks as if I’m going to have to eat here too.” The students lament does not go unheard, though, as ONU provides for every need. On- campus residents are able to choose from two meal plans for cafeteria service supplied by Saga. Not only does Saga provide students with three fine meals a day and Sunday afternoon buffets, but it also features special evening meals in which a theme may be carried out, home cooked meals are prepared using “Mom’s” recipes, dinners are fixed in conjunction with events such as International Week and Black Aware¬ ness Week, and offerings such as the ever popular “Steak Night” appear regularly. Off-campus residents may also choose a Saga meal plan due to the fine food and convenience the university cafeteria has to offer. However, when evening hunger pangs strike, alternatives do exist. Ada offers a number of drinking and eating establishments, not to mention more than a half dozen places to call for pizza. Kitchenettes exist in every residence hall, and area grocery stores provide ONU chefs with what they need in order to prepare their own meals and snacks. Whatever the case, the ONU student is a well fed student. 22 Student Life: Eating
