Why does Mercyhurst say that we got a 24 hr. Lounge if it's really not? Some of my friends came up to me last Friday, knowing that I sometimes write for the merciad, and they were asking me to write about what happened to them. They were complaining to me about the fact that they had been kicked out of the "24 hr. lounge" at around midnight on Thursday when the library closed. They had to stand outside in the cold while librarians closed up the regular library entry and made sure that no one had un-checked out books. Only after this was done they could go in through the new entry in front of 38th. My friends were really mad, as I would be. I think Mercyhurst should promote students who are studying until late in the night instead of interrupting them to make sure no one is stealing anything. They should just hire a guard or buy another one of those beeping things...hopefully sometime before winter comes and we have to stand outside in the snow and wind.
