What in the world does being Hispanic have to do with it.

Booking library study rooms is especially popular it seems and study groups will try and book the same one sequentially by having each member book the next slot.

My kid and their friends do exactly this several times per week. No way can 6+ people study in a dorm room together.

I never studied in my room - always went to the library. This backfired on me. I had a crazy, paranoid roommate who thought I was out partying every night. When she peeked at my grades (without my permission) she had a seething temper tantrum, accusing me of being a party girl who didn't deserve the same grades she got. Snarling, screaming, sobbing, demeaning, etc. I'd never been so shocked and terrified. It took me a long time to get over it. I begged for a single the next year, because I didn't know what madness could lurk below the surface of the next roommate. In later years, I realized that maybe she was jealous of my looks because she had a crush on one of the teachers in a shared class - he was a notorious flirt and I just ignored him.

The PP said that Asians study in libraries, as if they were super studious.

Yes, I studied in the library and student snow study in the library, partially to meet up with friends and socialize, as well as study.

College librarian here. Lots of students study and meet in the library! We've been gradually removing book stacks to create more and more study areas.

Yes, always. My library was beautiful and peaceful, the perfect place to study and complete homework.

My husband and others studied at the library in the 90s. My daughter and her friends book study rooms and go to work on homework and/or study. Quieter than the dorms and can spread out their stuff. Her desk in the dorm is pretty small.

We studied in the library and our kid does also - what is the question? Yeah plenty of places to study - but libraries tend to be quiet and have work stations. Again not clear on the question.

At William & Mary they sure as hell do.
