Sure, you could sit in your room and study for hours on end. But why not get out? Find neutral ground. Sink deep into your notes and study guides so you can shine in papers, tests and exams.
Check out these four great places to study on campus.
If nothing else, you can tell mom you spent all day at the library.
The Grand Reading Room

Not one for heights? Want something more traditional? Head to the east end of Thompson’s second floor for the Grand Reading Room. This quiet study area overlooks the Oval and offers oodles of table space to spread out under the winged splendor of the Nike of Samothrace sculpture.
Fireplace lounges

If you appreciate a social study setting, the Ohio Union fireplace lounges on the first and second floors are so you. The living room settings are bathed in natural light from floor-to-ceiling windows that overlook a picturesque south Oval landscape.
The Orton Library

The grotesques on the bell tower façade and the ginormous dinosaur skeleton in the Orton Hall entrance belie the quiet, quaint atmosphere of the Orton Memorial Library of Geology. Occupying the oldest library location on campus in one of our coolest and most historic buildings, the library is a traditional study spot that allows students to lock in and focus.
Top floor of the Thompson Library

Go for the views, stay for the meditative bliss. The natural light and variety of seating — from lounge chairs to rocking chairs — creates a laid-back, happy place.
