As dead weak and finals descend upon students, many turn to caffeine to stay up and get all the studying and final projects done. Between rushing to class to a study group to a test, it might be hard to find time to get to one of the off campus cafes.
Students are in luck though, because IU has many places on campus so students are bound to be able to get a cup of coffee whenever and wherever they are in desperate need of a pick-me-up.
Freshman Annie Brown said this past week she has been coming to Starbucks in the Indiana Memorial Union almost twice a day. Her go-to drink is a venti iced skinny vanilla latte, but when she needs more caffeine she goes for a caramel iced coffee.
“I love coffee,” Brown said. “I just love the taste of it but also because I need to get work done.”
Starbucks baristas Tanner Kase, Sava Ybarra and Rebecca Newkirk said they do see in increase in business during this time.
“Generally people start coming in earlier and leaving way later,” Newkirk said. “It's a more academic environment.”
Ybarra said more students are flocking there especially for the caffeine.
“It keeps them going,” she said.
