Column·One Todd Bishop Managing Editor • After the storm University Police dispatchers were left scrambling after campus officials decided Tuesday to close THE STORM STRIKES Chico State. More than 2,000 students called the police depart­ ment during the morning to see if the school was actually shut down, officers reported. Callers received little more than "the campus is closed" from the two dispatchers left to take the calls. If nothing more, said campus police Sgt. Wayne Thornton, the department learned one of the most valuable tools to have during a storm. An answering machine . • Voice on the TRACS Listen to a few words from Abe Baily and you'll swear he's the voice of TRACS. In fact, Baily's voice is often mistaken as the one which leads students through telephone registmtion. But it's not true, said Baily, who has worked as the announcer for Chico State athletics and KHSL-TV in addition to being the university's student affairs development officer. "My voice is familiar to people and I guess the voice on TRACS kind of sounds like it," he said. For the record, the TRACS voice actually belongs to retired communication design professor George Rogers, the Admissions and Records office reported. But the next time you see Baily on campus, catch his attention and listen to his voice. You'll be amazed. And, no, he won't ask you to enter an action code. . . ,i. . .' . ....

;.Knowledge is usually ac­ quired during a lifetime, but for some Chico State University students, that lifetime becomes one night - the night before finals. ~tephanie Benavidez, a Ch~co State sophomore psy­ chology major, said she's pre­ paring for' finals week by "studying, going to the library, makingnotecards and trying not to. get behind." Benavidez, like other stu­ dim"ts, is getting ready for finals by cracking open her textbooks . .she said she tries to study at least two hours in the evenings and three hours during the day in preparation for her finals. Benavidez prefers studying at home without any distrac­ tions, such as the radio or tele­ vision. "I try not to turn the TV on," Benavidez said. She tries to make. her atmo­ sphere at home more enjoyable' for studying."" ,.'i She said, "I sit down and usu­ ally just have something to drink. I sit in a comfortable chair. " . "I can't sit at a table. I have to be comfortable, that's why I don't go to the library," she Riding on Above: The Associated Students said. She said if she goes to the student shuttle trolley provides Chico State library, she isn't comfortable and she gets distracted by all can be rocky University students with tJi'e people. .
