In the midst of the crowded Rec Center, there is one place that contrasts the noise of running treadmills, shoes squeaking on the court and weights clanging together: the pool. To find it, you must head downstairs, past the weight rooms, where you will find a narrow hallway that will lead you to it. As you enter, the scent of chlorine will greet you instantly, as if you’ve walked through a portal to another world.

Humans, and especially college students, love the idea of “optimizing” their time. We’ve all heard variations of these statements: How do I put in the least amount of work to get my intended result? How many hours should I spend on this activity to get to a specific level? What’s the latest I can start studying to still pass this exam? Will joining this fun club prevent me from doing my work?
