OT: Is this normal?

[Kamog]

There were some people who did not live in residence but still lived on campus! One guy parked an old Volkswagen van in the parking lot and slept in there. I guess he used the washrooms and showers on campus. A couple of other guys had a home somewhere but stayed overnight a lot in the lab. They found an empty cubicle and kept food, clothes etc in the desk drawers, brought sleeping bags and slept on the floor. People could do this because we had 24 hour access to the lab.

I wouldn't want to do something like that except for the occasional all-nighter. I don't think I can get any real rest that way and I'll probably get sick after a week or two!
