Good Place to Study
I'm looking for some suggestions for a new study space. I want something quiet, but not totally isolated. My place for 2 years was fourth floor, far right corner facing the parking lot. I came there yesterday and they got rid of the cubicles! Also a place with outlets would be nice. Any ideas will help! Thanks

Silent study rooms @ Innis Library are silent (obviously) and never full.

You could always study at the student center at night.

It can get eerily quiet there.

empty classrooms all around campus. There are hundreds of places to study!! just find one if you don't like it move to another. I've been around many buildings looking for a place. So far my favorite is Hamilton Hall but it can get noisy there.

Thode - either in the basement (study carrels) or 2nd floor.

I like the health sci library. but earplugs can do wonders. Any space can be quite.

I like the Health Sci library but Thode is pretty good too although it smells in some places.

You could always study in that section of ABB on the first floor where there are tables, it's really quiet there at night. Kinda creepy though.

Which of the libraries has a lot of those individual study rooms (not cubicles) and which one's the quietest? Residence is not working for studying =/ >.<
I heard the Health Sci library is usually really quiet- haven't been there yet. I know what you mean! I froze while in the basement tonight! And ironically it's so hot in the rest of the building =F

I LOVE studying in Thode. It has a very good studying atmosphere. Second floor and basement is best for quite study.

Health Sci Lib isn't bad either. It's good for group work and such.

Innis is really quiet, probably because not that many people know where it is. ... Should I tell you?

Hmm, the upper floors of Mills can be quiet too but during certain times of day, like evening.
