This is a series of photos taken around the Oregon State University campus during week 10, or dead week. Instead of partying and getting crazy, the students flock to the library to study as much as possible before finals week.

Dead week is a relatively quite time around the campus of Oregon State. The pictures at Valley Library are taken from 10 pm to 11:30 pm, showing the commitment these students have to their school work. It is a stressful period for all students during this week. Many times at Valley Library you can hear, "Oh crap," or, "Why is this so hard," which accurately gives one the impression that finals are on the way.
