Back when I was going to college, long ago, the Denny's next to the campus had an all-night deal for students: pay (I dunno how much, the equivalent of 2-3 cups of coffee) and you got to study from evening 'till dawn if you wanted. That Denny's was practically a campus institution.

When you're studying in university, sometimes you need a quiet place away from distractions, music, girlfriends, loud roommates, surly sleeping roommates, and so on. It's also good to have bright lights and a big table to spread your stuff out on. Some universities have late-night study halls that offer all these things -- but they don't serve coffee :-).
