LETTER: Noise distracts from studying

Dear Editor,

I appreciate the computer lab in the Taggart Student Center being open 24 hours the weeks preceding finals. I think it’s great the computer lab staff is willing to work into the wee hours of the morning; I hope they are getting paid time-and-a-half.

What I don’t appreciate is the Stevenson Ballroom being scheduled Nov. 29 for some type of concert, if you can call the noise, that is causing the panels in the ceiling to shake, music. Give me a break. I’m listening to this music right now and it sounds like a moaning dog – how am I supposed to concentrate on writing my paper? Maybe I will come back to the computer lab at 3 a.m.
