I would like to take a moment to ask GSU what they were thinking, renovating the library in such a way where at times students still have to wait to use computers or find a decent place to study. This gets even worse during the last couple of weeks of each semester. Yesterday, I came to the library at 7:30pm to meet for a group project. The library parking lot was full, the parking lot belonging to Veazey and Admissions was full, and parking on Sweet Heart circle was full! We had to drive around until someone came out of the library, and we took their parking spot. Seriously, I would rather not worry about where I am going to park when I have a huge final coming up. Once you get in the library you then have to wait to use a computer or check out a laptop. That’s just not right. I believe the school just didn’t anticipate the high growth in enrollment we experienced this year. Though I will no longer be here after I graduate this weekend, I hope they will build more parking so students can have easy access to the library. I hope they also find a way to put in more study desks in the open spaces in the library so everyone can have a place to study and get some homework done.
On a slightly different note: As a frequent user of the library, it just gets frustrating when I see so many people come to the library to cram for finals or projects. I come to the library practically everyday in the semester, and at the end of the semester my study location gets snagged away by somebody who has probably never stepped foot in the library. It’s just not fair! What are these people thinking?
