Procrastination: stiil the name of ttie game Bookin ' it generally refers to the panic and almost obses- sive compulsion to study which hits most SEMSU students somewhere around the last week of the semester. Suddenly the library abounds with students, and more than a few have been known to burn the midnight oil in order to cram for an exam. No one can say they didn ' t try to warn the freshmen. For the past few years Towers West has sponsored a study seminar aimed primarily at freshmen in hopes of helping them to develop good study habits. Several students who attended this year ' s seminar were asked at random why they attended and answers ranged from I had to, (the seminar was mandatory for all freshmen and new students in Towers West) to I was glad to find out about anything that could help me study better. Eileen Vle- dek, a new student from the St. Louis area said, I wanted to brush up on my skills, mainly because there ' s been a year and a half lapse between high school and college for me. But despite the fact that almost six hundred students attended the seminar, it is difficult to picture the day when every student has learned to defy procrastination; and pull- ing an all-nighter to finish up the semester becomes the exception rather than the rule. 24
