This is a petition for the Ateneo administration to add more places for students to rest and take naps. These include but are not limited to beds, couches, mattresses and bean-bag chairs. The areas where suitable for such furniture can range from Matteo Ricci to Rizal Library. Help us help students by giving them an area for them to regain the energy they lost from keeping up with the college life.

When you have a lot of things to do and your back hurts from napping in an uncomfortable position it doesn't really help :'(

Some already take naps in the library and cafeteria. Why not make it more comfortable for them.
