Reading: University is going to sell commonly-used items in student halls 24/7, and gonna send out surveys to students to decide what items to include.
Listening: the men in the conversation likes this idea 
a) Stores that sell these items are far away and close early at night. Last night he wanted aspirins for headache but could not buy any. 
b) Student opinions are important and valuable because the school cannot know what students really need in life. e.g. running out of ink for the printer right before printing an assignment to submit.
