Rotunda Stop...

Q: What makes you a regular at Clark?

A: I usually get my work done here a lot better than I do at Clemons, but not now because it's so noisy with the construction. But in some ways, it's still better than Clemons because

everyone I know goes there so I just end up

socializing.

Q:Does the construction keep you from getting your work done here?

A: It's kind of annoying when you try to get your reading done. I'm an Econ major right now, but I may be switching to Bio-Chem. So I do a lot of my research in Clark because all the science journals are here.

Q: Are you aware that this used to be the law library?

A: No, I wasn't aware of that but it makes sense. You can't find some normal aspects of a science library in here -- there are no labs or equipment you could use, just lots of journals.

Q:What do you think of the nude murals on the walls in the entry hall?

A: They're definitely interesting -- they give the building character. If I was visiting the University, I would wonder what the point of classical naked paintings would be since this is a science library.

All University students are required to live on Grounds in their first year, but they have many on and off-Grounds housing options going into their second year. Students face immense pressure to decide on housing as soon as possible, and this high demand has strained the capacities of both on and off-Grounds accommodations. Lauren Seeliger and Brandon Kile, two third-year Cavalier Daily News writers, discuss the impact of the student housing frenzy on both University students and the Charlottesville community.
