Jare Today ill 3 SC School of Medicine f F Where can yoi It doe: I By SHELLEY COCHRANE Features reporter All over campus, USC students arc looking for the perfect place [ to study. While a certain place I may be the top choice for one student, it may be the last resort for ' anomer. The Thomas Cooper Library, the Business Library and dorm I rooms are all popular places to study. Anthropology sophomore Wendy Walker said she can study much easier in the library. She said, "I can concentrate better because there arc no interruptions. When I study in my room, I don't get anything accomplished because 1 talk on the phone or to my roommate." "Sunday night is the busiest, U/ith ^^M ? irivil 1T1V/I1UUJ \~V/llllll? 111 J)C* cond," said Daniel Boice, a reference librarian. "Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday get progressively slower, and by Friday, this place is empty." "Students usually come in after 7 p.m. to study on weeknights. But on Sunday afternoon, when we open at 1 p.m., they are waiting in line to get in here," he said. t Another place where many students like to study is the Business Library. Business finance senior Roger Chestnut said he studies in the Business J Library. "There are usually other people from mv classes there nnd wp \ study together," he said. But Lisa Willis, an art freshman, finds the library too distracting for her to study. "There are too many people s walking around and talking," she said. "The noise really bothers * me and I can't study." Boice said, "Our current problem is that people who wear Walkmans do not realize how loud they are playing the music, ? and we have to ask them to turn it 3 down."
