We asked seventy-five regular Lee students what their average weekly bed time was. The informal poll was conducted on cam-
pus, gathering responses from the Paul Conn Student Union, Alumni Park, the Pedestrian Mall, and the Deacon Jones Dining Hall.
The results, pictured in a graph below, found that 1:00AM and 2:30AM were the most popular bed times among students. Ap-
proximately one out of seven Lee students gets to bed before or at midnight and one out of seven gets to bed at or following
3:00AM. The majority of students hit the sack between the chimes of 12:30 and 2:30.

markers and dreams, I’ll see the moon will once again slide down,
the smooth white metal cross falling from the sky,
reminding me where I come from. until it comes without a frown,
rising in the east to fly.
