after reading the above article, i was left wondering about students' study habits. if you have lived on campus during college, what was your study pattern? describe study habits and methods. students and ex-students welcome. off campus students/ex-students are welcome to chime in too.

what the crap? why the fucl do these kids need a DVD player in their
dorm? you really need a big screen colour TV to study, now dontcha?
it's completely rediculous. when i was going to school i had a back
pack? remember those? yeah, in my backpack i had some books and a binder
or two. oh, and penciles...i think a pen or two. i have to confess, i
did indeed have a portable cd player for my own enjoyment and to block
out the outside world while studying. i realize that perhaps an
enternainment system can "block out the outside world" for you, but does
it help at all with study? of course, studying for me was always more
along the lines of reading book X i had for class X.
i'm dumbfounded over this article. school has become more about what
kind of luxuries that students can have instead of what they can learn
and pursue. i think that's kinda sad.
