Where is the best place to get work done on campus?

oh yeah. 27. (i'm a tour guide, i promise it's true!!!) our biggest and most-used undergraduate library, Butler, is open 24/7 and has everything could possibly need. there are almost always study spaces available (individual cubbies, group study rooms, large reading rooms, etc). besides using the libraries (which are SO beautiful), i tend to work in my room or in my dorm's lounge. it's a nice break from an intense library atmosphere. reading in my bed is nice if i don't fall asleep!

There are many different libraries on campus, the biggest and most popular being Butler Library. This is the most intense place to study, especially Room 209. People sleep there. There are a number of smaller libraries around campus that offer a more relaxed feel, including Avery, Northwest Corner (NoCo), and Kent (my personal favorite).

On top of a bridge over Amsterdam Avenue, students can find another space to hang out and study.
