Best Place To Study On Campus:

Brookens Library

Brookens Library has been voted the best on-campus study place! Many people are regulars at Brookens, as it’s one of the most common places to do homework and get away from the distractions of campus. This is probably why it won! Brookens has many floors to it and they are even divided by noise level, which is super-beneficial. On the first level, minimal conversations and general library etiquette are allowed, while the upper levels are quiet floors where you can lock in and focus on your study materials for hours on end without worry of being disturbed.

There are always friendly faces at Brookens which makes it very welcoming and inviting. The biggest downside to the library? It’s not open on the weekends when most students are doing the bulk of homework and studying, and it’s only open until 4 p.m. on Fridays, which doesn’t give many students who work regular daytime jobs enough time to enjoy and make use of this great campus resource!
