I have found that I like to study in my room. While it often becomes distracting, I am comfortable, I have food, and can take a break without having to trek between places.
Other than my room, I think Eckles library on the Mt. Vernon campus is a great place to study. There are always desks open, except in snow storms, and the bus ride is often soothing and relaxing. The Hatchet recently did an article about how students are using Eckles more than ever.
Another great place to study is the Marvin Center. This year the university has added more couches on all of the floors with tables and plenty of outlets for studying by yourself or with a group. The Marvin Center is the main student building on campus holding all of the student organizations and J Street, our dining hall. Many event are held in the building so being able to study, then go to an event or meeting, and then go back to studying is a great luxury. The Marvin Center is now open until 2 AM too, so you can get plenty of studying in when you need to.
There are plenty of other places on campus to study like, Ivory Tower food court, the Fishbowl, and the Academic Center.
Even if you don't have a laptop, there at 24 hour computer labs all over campus so you can connect to the internet and print out readings or work on presentations.
Academics are the reason you go to college. And while it may seem like all of us bloggers are occupied doing other things, we must focus on our education.
Remember, you can email me with any questions!
