Students Feel Pressure Due To Papers and Tests For every Wittenberg stu- dent there exists a paper: a paper of eight to ten pages, one which must be typewritten and double spaced,” a paper which must be in the envelope on my door by five O'Clock Monday. In reality, this pa- per can be stretched to six and a half pages if you ad- just the margins a little, is full of typographical errors, and is slipped into the en- velope as soon as security opens the building Tuesday morning, in hopes that the professor left early Monday and won't notice. Writing this paper is usu- ally a long and painful pro- cess. You begin to think about it several days before it is due and curse yourself for not starting it earlier. You trudge down to the library only to find that all the books you need from re- serve are out for the night. When the research is fi- nally done and you need to actually write the paper, an- other barrier emerges. It starts with I should be stud- ying, and I have this pa- per to write, follwed by I'm NEVER going to finish this,” and I'm gonna have to pull an all-nighter. Then there's the infamous Oh my God! I have writer's block! You hurl obscenities at yourself and decide to take a study break. 4:30 a.m. You have just finished typing the cover page. Is it Pulitzer Prize ma- terial? Never! Excellent? Forget it. Satisfactory? May- be. Done? Yes. that's the word you're looking for. For every Wittenberg stu- dent there also exists a test: an essay test consisting of ten questions, or a multiple choice test with 100 problems, a test for which there is no makeup.” In any event, the scenario is much the same.
