#myCMUlife | How do CMU students spend their reading week?
Reading week is something that every student looks forward to. Whether you're visiting home or staying on campus, it is a time for relaxing, hanging out with friends and family, catching up on sleep, having fun, and, well, reading.
Good study habits are important, but what second-year student and Poettcker Hall resident Shusmita Shovona took away from the fall semester reading week was the chance to have a fun time with the different residence events that were planned out. "My favourite events were the movie screening and sleepover in the lecture hall, and gargon." For context, gargon is a student-created game where you run around the north side castle at nighttime with an objective that changes every year, while being chased by enemies.
