Keep the Music Building Open Later
Currently, the campus music building'which has practice rooms students can reserve for playing instruments'closes nightly at nine p.m. I think the university should keep the building open until midnight. Often, student musicians want to practice their instruments later at night, and right now there" s no good place for them to do that. Also, lots of students want to use the practice rooms, so if s often difficult to reserve one. If the building were open more hours,though, it would be easier to accommodate the large number of students who want to reserve rooms.
