Kight shift not bad

sed, Honeycutt said,
iost of the students who use
library during the late night
irs are there to study, which
means workers have to field few
er questions. The night hours
generally allow more time to
help those patrons who do have
questions, said Erin Plumb, a
worker at the reference desk.
The atmosphere is more re
laxed, and people are more
understanding when they have
to wait for help, she said.
Plumb, a senior geography
major, began working nights be
cause those were the only hours
available, but has since decided
she likes the night shift.
“I like being responsible for
myself,” Plumb said. “During
the day, there are lots of people
behind the desk and it’s more
hectic. At night, everything
slows down, and I have more
time to help the people that
come in.”
A suffering social life is one of
the hazards of working several
nights a week at the library, said
Clare Dorotik, a student worker
in the microtext department.
She, like Plumb, works four
nights a week.
“I feel like in a way it’s good,”
Dorotik said, “because it keeps
me from going out as much.”
Studying also is more difficult
for Dorotik, a junior manage
ment major, since she does her
best studying at night.
The interaction with students
and professors is much freer at
night, Cindy Hunter and Scott
Goode said. Hunter and Goode
have worked in the map room
for much of their respective col
lege careers, and both said they
enjoy working the night shift.
“I love working nights at the
library,” Hunter, a senior re
creation and parks major, said,
“because of all the people you
meet. Everyone seems to be
more talkative and relaxed. It’s
students talking to students, and
students to faculty. There’s a lot
more freedom.”
Goode, a senior geography
major, agrees the evening hours
have a certain advantage.
“All the administrative and
librarianship (tasks) are done
during the daytime,” he said.
“Interspersed is the informa
tion-transfer aspect. Our re
sponsibility is to keep up with

®ow that the effort was worth
year in a row, that Texas A&M
has been represented at the
NDT.
“Qualifying for Nationals has
been our goalall year,” Derrick-
son said. “That’s part of the
reason I came to A&M.”
Derrickson had been offered
a position on the Texas Tech de
bate team, but decided to attend
Texas A&M instead.
Wayne Kraemer, director of
the University’s debate prog
ram, said this year’s invitation to
the NDT establishes Texas
A&M’s program as one of na
tional caliber.
“Going to NDT two years in a
row does great things for our
program,” Kraemer said,
adding that it “helps our recruit
ing by giving the high school de
bater who is already interested
in A&M academically an added
incentive to attend, and it en
hances the reputation of our
program as well as the reputa
tion of A&M.”
