with customers, especially during midterms. At
certain cafes, there are often people left hovering
around, waiting for a table to become available.
One reason that cafes tempt weary studiers is
that they often provide a much more comfortable
atmosphere filled with
cheerful bantering rather
than stress-filled silence M ,
and frustrated sighs. Many
coffee shops also provide bee '
comfortable living room
furniture that is ideal for libraries
curling up and reading a
good book. Ilto b
Malin Bergner, an
exchange student from o f i
Sweden, said she prefers
the coffee shop setting to
the sterile environment of Exchange st
the libraries. "I haven't
really been to the
libraries," she admited. "1 like to be comfortable."
Kate Lemieux, Supervisor at Gratzi Coffee Shop
on East Liberty Street, believes that the coffee
shop attracts people because it's relaxing, and
because it offers the distractions of people-watch-.

atmospheres, and students usually have their own
signature study location. But some, caught up in

respective subjects dictate.

said she takes him to Kids'

studying done in the spare moments she has there.
When it comes to midterm studying, there is
no law or formula to follow. Comfort seems to
be the cardinal rule, however, whether being sur-
rounded by the tranquil silence of the Law
Library, the busy activity of coffee shops or the
sweet comforts of home.
