Yeah, no problems there. I've done it. Best place if you are talking sleeping with a sleeping bag is in Club Space. After that, just the chairs upstairs are perfectly fine.
Although, I still don't trust that my laptop wouldn't get stolen from in front of me, I've slept essentially cuddling my laptop before...

If you are a swamp donkey like Cheri, or a Troll collector like me, it is no problem. But if you are attractive or look rich, random people might try to invite you to have sex with them, making it hard to sleep.

It's almost funny, if I wrote this about someone else, I'd be getting warnings left right and centre. Luckily enough, I was born with a sense of humour.



Anyways, it's fine to sleep in the student centre. I slept just fine last night. I asked some stranger to poke me if my alarm didn't wake me up. All I had was a textbook so I wasn't too worried about a 50 minute nap, but I definitely wouldn't bring a laptop or anything with you. That's just stupid.

But I also fit perfectly on those sofas, so it might be less comfortable for someone of average height...

lol, i think the OP is asking about a situation where they had to sleep over in which case they would have all their belongings with them for school. If you must sleep in the student center i'd suggest keeping your laptop very close by.

Not many people go to the student center just to sleep over... (besides the freaks)

Why not? Think of all the money you would save. Get a locker and you're set for the school year.

OR you could get a locker and lock your stuff up... OR become somebody with some sort of office privileges and take advantage of them as you may

I've napped a few times during my lunch breaks, but never overnight. I use earplugs because it is pretty noisy.

Student center kind of sucks for sleeping. I frequently got locked out last year, and all the good spots in the student center were always taken... or had some douchebags being really loud lolling about nothing sitting next to them.

The worst is when you think you see a spot (like on one of those psychiatrist guy couches on the second floor) and then you go over to see that some 90 pound individual has curled up into a ball at the very top of it against the headrest.

Lmao!
It's safe, I've done it before.
My friend and I had loads of fun, actually,
and no one tried shoving *****s up our butts while we slept.

but yeah, it gets pretty loud, so earplugs are a good idea.
the couches on the 2nd/3rd floor are pretty comfy.
I fit perfectly, haha.

& I hid all my stuff under the couch so no one could take it.
