Cayce's doughnu
fun for students,
By SUSAN GOODWIN
Staff Writer
for more than 13 years, Betty
Glenn has learned about the
nature of college students simply
by watching their behavWhile
the 53-year-old
hasn't spent hours researching
in a psychoanalytic lab, she
has worked somewhere inherendy
closer to Generation X. Krispy Kreme.
"College students never want to share,"
Glenn said. "I tell them about the specials we
run, but they'd rather spend their own money
even though they could go in together and get
the doughnuts cheaper. And I think, 'Gee, what
are you all doing?"'
In all her experiences at a Greenville store
and the year-and-a-half-old Cayce store, Glenn
has noticed other trends in the actions of campus
packs.
"I can usually tell when midterms come around
even without being told," Glenn said. "Students
bring their books more and study more."
Though night clubs are most often thought of
as the hangouts of choice, Glenn says that many
members of the college crowd can be seen at

the doughnut shop during her 5 p.m. to 3 a.m.
shift Friday, Saturday and Tuesday. And she '
knows why. *
"The product is fairly cheap, and they like the
hot doughnuts," Glenn said. "They also like to
watch the conveyor belts."
Though one of the attractions is the ability to
watch the doughnuts being made on an assembly
line, the 24-hour nature of Krispy Kreme is
a larger factor for some of the more nocturnallyinclined.
"It was about three in the morning, and we
went driving," marine science freshman Jason
King said. "It was the only doughnut shop we
could find open." (
Store hours are important to another staple
customer, the police officer.

"Krispy Kreme doughnuts are always fresh,"
rhigpen said. "With Dunkin' Donuts, you have
:o catch them at the right time. Sometimes,
hey're fresh, and sometimes, they're not."
However, Thigpen can explain the reason
Dehind the night exodus to Krispy Kreme more
>imply than that.
"Usually, if I want something to eat that late
it night, doughnuts sound like a good idea,"
rhigpen said.
Whether it be nocturnal instinct or basic cravng,
Glenn finds that nighttime brings out colege
students and police officers alike, each
ntent on consuming some of the 5,000 to 6,000
loughnuts sold daily.
As for who's the better customer, Glenn isn't
aking any sides.
"Both of them are because they both just kind
)f hang out," she said.
