SRWC Becomes Popular Place to Study

     With the absence of any type of store or shop in the lobby of the Student Recreation and Wellness Center, students have been using it as a place to study.

    
    Students can be found studying at the SRWC from opening at 6 am to closing at 12 pm on weekdays, but it has peak hours from about 11 am to 9 pm.

     Convenience is a big factor for most students  in this popular study area.

 
       “It’s a very popular place to study,” said SRWC employee Brandon Robinson. “I think it’s a proximity thing. I study there a lot, and for people who have classes on lower campus it’s more convenient than walking all the way up to the library. That and it’s fairly quiet.”

      Other students who frequent the SRCW agree with Brandon.

     “I like studying there because it opens up before the library so I can go there early in the morning,” said sophomore Michael Chan. “Plus it usually has better internet access than most areas of the library, more outlets, and is less busy.”

     With the opening of a new Robeks in the SRWC set for summer some students feel it will be too busy to study there anymore. Others think it will be just another reason to be there instead of the library.

Whatever the reason for studying in the SRWC, more and more students continue to make it a popular area during all hours of operation.
