Many go to bed in the small hours of the morning and wake up just in time for lunch. Also unlike working adults, they often do not have a consistently quiet workplace in their homes (or, in this case, their rooms) in which to study late at night. Further, it goes without saying that the average Harvard undergraduate doesn’t have the space in his or her dorm room for a library containing thousands of resources and reserves...
