Reprising Rules from Kindergarten

As we all descend into the pit of flame and sulfur that is finals, there are some rules to live by, in order to avoid being murdered by your stressed out/strung out/ sleep deprived classmates. All of these rules, for the most part, have been adapted from the rules they implemented in Kindergarten to keep all of us little rugrats under control.

First, use your indoor voice in the library. This should be read to mean: actually whisper, none of this scream whispering crap.

Second, let's expand the first rule to be make as little noise as possible while in the library. This includes no stomping down the concrete stairs when going to the printer. Why they have concrete stairs in a library to begin with is beyond me. Seems woefully counterintuitive.

Third, if the administration feels the need to ingratiate itself to you through food/coffee, take all of it. As much as you want. Mmmmm.....free stuff.

Fourth, if you need a room for study grouping purposes, remember that EVERYONE wants one of those law student only rooms. They're schmancy in all their failure to circulate air properly and regulate temperature glory. They smell weird, but they're truly the dungeon and force us all to get things done, so don't take advantage. Also, remember that once classes stop being a thing, ALL classrooms are up for grabs until exams actually start.

Fifth, your study group will be much more bearable with snacks and/or drink breaks and/or sanity breaks. I may or may not overuse all of these privileges.
