Now that the more administrative first few weeks of the semester have passed without incident, most of us will find ourselves in the cold recesses of the library, willing the words on the pages of our overpriced textbooks to seep into our brains. In order to better facilitate this process, I have conducted hours of research, polling thousands (I’m super fast), all in an effort to formulate a playlist that would accurately exemplify the student body’s taste in study music.
