Study room name roundup
With exams lurking around the corner, Bora Laskin Library is a sight to behold, especially after class hours.
Unhinged law students crowd the fish bowl, set up a ridiculous amount of devices (tablets, laptops, reading stands), and hunker down until the library staff beg them to leave at midnight (they might then find refuge in Robarts).
The glass walled study rooms are sad displays of the depths of law students’ despair—keeners fighting over empty rooms, pitiful UberEats dinners, and scribblings on the whiteboard in a desperate attempt to understand what Auer means for discretion for judicial review.
In booking these rooms, there are some of you who get right to the point with names such as ‘Study’, ‘Property’, or the initials of the room book-er. It’s easy to tell that you’re a very serious (boring) law student with no time for frivolities.
But there are so many of you who enjoy the simple pleasures in life, who use the study room names to do more—to impart a laugh. Over the last few months, we have monitored the study room names and have shortlisted the top 5 study rooms for each month, ranked by how hard I chuckled.
If your room name was #1, congrats! You’re funny (to me). If you want to appeal these rankings, find me and try to make me laugh. Otherwise, try harder next semester.
In honour of Bora, use this as inspiration to be as unhinged as you want—I promise the library (likely) won’t take away the puzzles.
