W: Did you see the email about the library? I think it's a great idea!
M: Really? I'm not so sure. Extending hours during finals week is fine, but a whole new quiet floor? That seems overkill.
W: But the quiet floor is exactly what we need. Last semester, I couldn't find a silent spot anywhere. Everyone was talking in groups, even on the higher floors.
M: I get that, but they're already building a new study center. Why spend more money on the library? Plus, 24/7 hours will just mean more noise and security issues.
W: Still, the quiet floor would give us a dedicated space. And 24/7 hours help night owls like me. The new study center is too far from my dorm.
M: I suppose, but I think the money could be better spent on more tutors. That would help more students academically.
