students Actually Do Study Here Although many do not be- lieve it, students at the Uni- versity of Georgia did open those text books purchased from the University Book Store. Evidently, there must have been some valid reason for students to stand in line for several hours each quarter just to purchase these heavy items. In addition to the students ' wait in lines that circled around an isle of Greet- ing cards, passed by the racks of Georgia sweatshirts, and seemed to grow even longer while approach- ing the bumper stickers, students also learned how to subtrack large sums of money from their check- books. This tradition of book store lines must have had a further expla- nation than that of a bookstore tour. a chance to balance the checkbook (or would the term overdraw be more appropriate), or getting the arms in shape while carrying the heavy loads. Perhaps these students are actually studying from these massive texts. Could it possibly be true that students at the University of Georgia do take time out of their busy schedules to study? Imagine Georgia students doing something more than just going to football games, having parties, attending concerts, and buying Dominoe ' s piz- zas. Even more amazing, the Universi- ty of Georgia supplied many loca- tions for studious students to open these books of knowledge. Of those various studying facilities furnished by UGA, the Main Library served as one of the most unique. If one had to actually study, they would most likely be found on any floor other than the first floor of the Main Li- brary. First floor seemed to be used as a social center for those students who enjoyed a library atmosphere as a place for conversation. The first floor also served as a place to find a phone book from almost anywhere in the world (i.e. Jacksonville, Flor- ida, New Orleans, Louisiana, Van- derbilt, Tennessee, or any other place where a Georgia fan might have needed to make hotel reserva- tions during football season), a place to take an hour study break in the lounge for that long ten minutes of reading Sigmund Freud ' s Civiliza- tion and Its Discontents, or a place to possibly check out a book if one was fortunate enough to have a paper due that quarter. Yes. there are many studious Uni- versity of Georgia students. Most classes require great amounts of study time aside from classroom at- tendance. Many freshmen or stu- dents new to the UGA environment are bewildered after that first Biol- ogy exam to find that study time is necessary in order to maintain a credible grade point average. After all. students did have to buy those texts for something. Getting back to nature helps this student learn his assignment in Biology. (LEFT. Photo by Paul Detwiler.) Well, only ten minutes left before class, and I still have to write a final draft , says Man- agement major Ed Gregory. (ABOVE. Photo bv Paul Detwiler.) STUDYING 25
