Freedom, profs could care less, and the amount of studying required for a single test.

I guess thats what engineering is all about

Alex from the physics lab. That guy is a surprise and a half.

His inquiry into why I was wearing headphones entering the lab:

The amount of time I had to spend in the library.. especially for Math 1Z04 and 1ZZ5 :/

Oh and how messy people can get while studying in Thode.. the noise level there is amazing for a library, seriously.

I think the biggest dumbass move whoever is in charge of that place did was moving the first floor group work tables to the outskirts directly under the second floor study booths.

So. Freakin. Loud.

Third floor was always taken too :(.

Really? Thode is worse than Mills? Oh mann. I usually avoid Mills like the plague unless if I'm doing a group project there.

Yeah! They moved the group tables so the noise travels upwards and now even the designated 'quiet' spaces have sound pollution. It gets me crazy everytime I had to study for a test in first year engineering, which is like, every other day.

Mills is relatively quiet on the upper floors. But maybe it's just cause I go there on Sundays

I prefer Mills over all of them. The upper floors are good for studying and getting homework done.

Thode, in my opinion, is pretty poorly designed. I don't think whoever made it knew they were making a library...
