As the never-ending exams continue to prevent you from enjoying the cozy season and the need to lock in becomes increasingly important, finding a good place to study is necessary to get things done. After consulting with a number of students on their various study habits, here are some favorite study spots:

The Case Quad is a convenient place to study in between classes. Outside on the benches (as weather permits), you can get some fresh air conveniently close to your next class. The second floor of Tomlinson Hall is also cozy and quiet, fitted with swivel chairs to spin on while you complete your next assignment. The Nord Hall basement, though dark at times, has cozy sofas for laptop work or reading (though the tables are ergonomically questionable, so write at your own risk!). The seventh floor of Crawford Hall (when hours permit) is also quiet and comfortable.

Everyone’s favorite study spot is, by far, the Kelvin Smith Library. Whether it’s the rolling whiteboards on the first and second floors, the plentiful collaboration tables or the quiet third floor, there’s a space for everyone. The spots next to the quiet room are equally as effective—without the intimidating silence that fills the quiet room.

However, the Allen Memorial Medical Library is equally comforting in its silence and its aesthetic. Arguably one of the most “college libraries” in style on campus, its academic feeling is a great motivator to get things done, and the variety of books is always interesting if you want to walk around the library as a study break.

Another popular spot is the Biomedical Research Building cafe, home to several types of food (with a Starbucks in proximity). This is a useful place for those with nearby classes in need of a last-minute review session (and shortcuts through the buildings to still get to class on time). In general, it has a good ambiance as you are surrounded by many others who are also studying.

The Tinkham Veale University Center is a popular and equally nice place to study. The booths put you closer to a study snack (Med-23 has plenty of options even on the weekends) and are spacious. There are plenty of tables and spots on the steps to sit and work. The balcony outside of the second floor is nice as well, but be careful of the wind and any papers it may take with it!

Another popular spot is the Thwing Student Center. The atrium on the first floor is cozy with sofas and booths, but the other floors have small nooks as well (check out the lounge area in the basement).

The Peter B. Lewis building (when access is available) has plenty of relatively soundproof, large study rooms with whiteboards for collaboration. There are plenty of tables and sofas spread throughout the building as well. Even better, morning study-ers can pick up a bagel before work begins.

Bellflower Lounge is another cozy space, which is pretty empty during normal class hours. Its proximity to the North Residential Village is also convenient for first-years and upperclassmen alike. The Jack, Joseph, and Morton Mandel Community Studies Center also has plenty of space to study, should there be no classes. Study mindfully, as classes and events that need the space come first.

If you would like another quiet place to study, but also a change in scenery, the Martin Luther King Jr. Public Library is a great place off campus. Sometimes a walk before a work session is enough to clear your mind and give you energy to study, and it gives you time to decompress before the grind starts again.

A sometimes overlooked and incredibly amazing study spot is, of course, your dorm room. Where else can you have your own private space to study with fuzzy socks, slippers and pajamas? It can be a nice, quiet and judgement-free zone.

Push through, and carry on as the semester begins to wrap up. Don’t forget to take some breaks and enjoy the last of the good weather. Good luck in all study endeavors!
