Male: As student body president I do not feel as though the removal of a set area for studying is advisable and I do not think this area should be converted into a library.
Female: I would have to agree with you, it doesn’t make much sense.
Male: The main reasons I feel as though this conversion should not take place is due to the fact that there are few areas that are designated as study areas, many books could easily be replaced with an E-book version allowing for more room in the current library, and finally I feel as though students are comfortable using the study area and may feel as though their leaning may be affected. There is really no reason to spend money on the extension when other programs could use the funds.
Female: I agree, everything is on E-book format these days, it would be cheaper and save so much room.
