Students are reminded to bring their student IDs for entry after 10:00 PM.

M: Did you see the notice about the library hours? I think it's great. I have three final papers due, and I often study best late at night when it's quiet. Now I can stay until 2 AM without worrying about being kicked out.
W: Really? I'm not so thrilled. I mean, the extended hours sound good, but I'm worried about safety. Walking back to the dorms at 2 AM alone is scary, and the campus shuttle stops running at midnight. Plus, the free coffee might just keep people awake and noisy, which could be distracting.
M: Well, I think they're addressing that. The notice says they'll have extra security patrols after 10 PM, and they're setting up a quiet study area in the basement for those who need silence. And the coffee is in the lobby, far from the study zones.
W: I hadn't thought about that. But still, I think it's unfair that they're only doing this during finals. What about the rest of the semester? Some of us have big projects mid-semester too.
M: True, but this is a start. I'd rather have this than nothing. I'll definitely be using it.
