It's a Library - STFU!

Wow, I never go to Mills. Like, ever. Try an empty classroom or other small libraries like Innis. Thode is getting pretty loud now too, whoever designed it is an idiot, sorry to say. There's lots of quiet spots in buildings, like CNH and stuff that have tables & outlets.

^ Are we allowed to use empty classrooms/lecture halls for studying purposes?

Yes. It's not as though classrooms are locked if they're not being used (although, some buildings lock at 3am ish )

You pretty much have access to anywhere on campus, minus rooms that you need a key/code for (ie: music rooms)

I don't give a sh*t about your roommate puking on your bed last night. I don't care to hear about how you think you might have an STD. I don't want to hear about why you would prefer tampons over pads. STFU if you're in a quiet study area, and spare the people around you the nausea of your irritating, cackling laughs.

And yes, all examples I just gave above are actual conversations I have overheard while attempting to study in Mills.

I may sound like a miserable ass, but there are plenty of places to socialize on campus. Try outside? It's been beautiful out recently. Or try the student centre, or any other place where people aren't studying.

I guess studying at home will be my best bet in the future....
you picked a school with trashy students, try to accept it, nothing can be done. : D

It sucks twice as hard when you come in on a Go bus and don't live near by...

I'm a man without a country...

BSB ftw!

Health Sci library is okay, if you can tolerate the people...ugh.

My high school library was much worse so I learned not to care about noises when I'm studying. The corners with the piled-up tables and stuff in the first floor of Mills isn't too bad yet whenever I go. The second floor is terrible though from the only time I went.

your first problem is studying at mills.

Go to Health Sciences Library or the Eng Library. Most of those libraries are dedicated to actual quiet studying - not the herp-derping you find at Mills.
