Study Areas: As Diverse As The Individual While leading the Romantic movement with words of harmony and emo- tion, William Wordsworth said to leave the books behind and go to nature for wisdom. Well, students weren ' t exactly leaving the books behind, but they were going to nature. Snugged under a cozy tree or parked on their favorite bench, students dug into their school work and allowed the bookworm in them to roam free. Studying in the great outdoors seemed to become commonplace. found that fresh air was one of the ingredients needed to create new thought. Although nature seemed to be a preferred study area, it was far from the only place to hit the books. The library remained a convenient locale for studying. Although not as stimulating as the outdoors, it provided a much quieter atmosphere in which to concentrate. Study cubicles with lock and key could be sought should one wish to lock up their books. For many, staying awake was the part. Therefore, the bedroom was a comfortable place in which to attempt to acquire knowledge. Should a sudden desire to sleep envelop you, the bed was always near. Study habits varied widely. While many scholars enjoyed studying with frie nds, others sought solitude. For some students, two hours of studying was more than they could bare. Others thought there weren ' t enough days in the week. Then there were those who, by the means of some extraordinary could listen to music, watch TV and have dinner while studying. The motive was a common one — to maintain (or improve) that darn GPA. Sometimes the long hours of hard work paid off. Sometimes they didn ' t. But whatever the results, the cure for exhausted brain cells was usually the same; a room full of people, music and plenty of drinks. — Jackie Bueno 1 J.
