■ STUDYING: Sometimes
classwork can prevent rest,
but caffeine and exercise are
only temporary solutions
By Ben Kwasney
Higher Education Reporter
Anyone who has tried pulling
an all-nighter knows it usually
takes drugs and motivation to be
successful.
Sleep is hard to come by for seri
ous students who are cramming
for midterms or writing late-night
papers.
There are some things to know
if you’re not able to get the eight to
10 hours of sleep required by most
people, according to Dr. Robert
Tearse, sleep disorders specialist.
Tearse recommends physical
activity to help the brain’s alert
ness.
“If you’re drowsy, you’re less ef
ficient,” he said. “Physical activity
will help drive the alertness.”
Caffeine is thought of as an aid
to keep the body going, and Tearse
said it definitely would help to
drink coffee or even take caffeine
pills.
“They’re [caffeine pills] as
healthy as too much coffee,” he
said.
The best advice is to manage
time effectively, said Annie
Dochnahl, a health educator at the
student health center. She said
caffeine pills such as No Doz and
Vivarin will cause fatigue later on.

HOWTO STAY AWAKE
■ PHYSICAL ACTIVITY
■ FRESH AIR AND WATER
■ DRINK COFFEE
■ CAFFEINE PILLS
■ SLEEP 2-3 HOURS
“If you’re using them instead of
sleep, you’re setting yourself up
for fatigue,” Dochnahl said.
It may be better to sleep for two

to three hours in between study
ing late at night, Tearse said.
“You got to realize if you’re
drowsy, the brain is inefficient,”
he said.
Some of the warning signs that
indicate a student should consider
changing sleep habits include ex
cessive sleeping during the day
time, sleep disruption during
nighttime sleeping, insomnia
caused from stress and failure to
stay awake in class.
