Most Depressing Places On Campus Volume XII: 3rd Floor Huntsman GSRs

Ever in need of a study space and don't know where to find one? Well, we can certainly tell you where not to go! That's right ladies and gentlemen, Huntsman GSRs-- but only those on the third floor, obviously. Let us tell you why:

To even make it to the third floor, you have to stand on not just one, but TWO whole escalators as they carry your motionless body upstairs. And if you’re starting out all the way in the depths of the forum, you should just forget about making the effort.

If you end up being able to survive the ascent, though, don’t get too excited-- the usual power trip you get to embark upon when kicking your peers out of your GSR at precisely 9:01 is no more, as a good majority of the rooms are empty upon arrival.

Why, you ask? Perhaps you are expecting the caliber of Huntsman’s 3rd floor GSRs to be remotely close to those of floors F, G, and 2. You would be wrong. In place of the magnificent whiteboard walls of yonder is a sole, pathetic imitation, more often than not lacking a functional Expo marker in its company. The chairs are cushion-less and the table slightly too short- you can't quite cross your legs comfortably. The power outlet is a mess of cords and wires in the middle of the table, not tucked neatly under the typically giant, high definition plasma. Oh yeah... there isn't even a plasma. Talk about embarrassing!

If you aren't convinced that Huntsman's third floor GSRs are without a doubt the most depressing places on campus, feel free to check out our other contenders: I, II, III, IV, V, VI, VII, VIII, IX, X, and XI.

At any rate, we suppose we can't complain too much. After all, you could be headed to a VP study carrel.
