28 At 8 a.m., life on campus is one big J. J. ave you c -cr been tm campus and felt like you were at a huge pajama slecpover? If so, you are not alone. Many students on campus wear pajamas to class daily. Pajamas in every imagin- able plaid, stripe or solid color have become a norm to college students here on campus and all over the country. Whether it ' s because of time or comfort, pajamas seem to be the clothing of choice across the nation for students. According to Emily Brogdon, a junior majoring in elementary education, pajamas are convenient. When you wake up late and do not have time to get ready, vou wear -our PJs. Time is definitely a factor in every college student ' s lite. From a job to studying to a social lite, co llege students usually don ' t have time to spend hours getting ready to go to class. In fact, many students just get out of bed and go straight to class. Ever ' one can agree that students hardlv ever get the recommended eight hours of sleep per night; they are always tired from all the activities that college otters. Whether it is chatting with a friend too long, just waking up late or not being able to find a legal parking space, being late to class is some- thing that ever - college smdent has experienced. An according to freshman AUyson Hughey, sleeping in class is not an unusual thing. Most people sleep in class anyway, so wear the correct attire, she advised. The truth is that most students who are tired want to be in comfortable clothes for the duration. Concerned about time and interested in comfort, most students feel that they can be more productive when they are at ease in the classroom. PJs seem to be an answer to many students ' quests for comfort. So, next time vou are late to class, don ' t bother putting on jeans and a T-shirt, just go on to class in your pajamas. by Kevin Whisenant PARTY SUPPLIES.
