W: Did you see the announcement about the library? I think it's a great idea.
M: Really? I'm not so sure. I mean, 24/7 hours sound nice, but it's only for finals week. What about the rest of the semester? Many of us have projects due throughout the term.
W: True, but finals are the most stressful time. Besides, the quiet floor is a big plus. I've often been distracted by group discussions on the regular floors.
M: But that quiet floor might not be enough. It's just one floor, and it could fill up quickly. Also, staying open all night might not be safe for students walking home alone.
W: I see your point, but I still think it's a step forward. I often need late-night study spots, and this gives us more options.
