THE FACES OF WINTER life intensifies in dormitories during cold months of winter Throughout the year dorm life is a key facet of student life, but at no other time is it more important than during winter. Consciously or otherwise, students find themselves spending more time in the dorms and less time on the campus. Winter weather dictates this.

Most students attempt to pursue their intellectual purposes through studying in the dorms, usually after ten o'clock.
