I spent about a hour in the Undergraduate Library today. Between my procrastinating and people-watching from the second floor, I noticed some interesting trends.
Here are the stats:
-Facebook accounts opened: 8
-Phones vibrating: 2
-Ringtone of "Romeo and Juliet" by Taylor Swift quickly being silenced: 1
-Hushed conversations of people catching up: 1
-Non-disabled students using the elevator: 3
-Words of wisdom written on bathroom stall walls by philosophy majors: 5
-Words of wisdom on bathroom stall walls by Communist students: 1
-Students working alone in group meeting rooms: 4
-People who I knew, but not quite well enough to say hello, and awkwardly avoided eye contact with on my way out of the library: 1
