For the times when everyone rediscovers Milstein…

With finals right around the corner/here/happening, everyone is officially on the grind. Suddenly your coveted Avery seat is gone and every room in Butler seems to be full. Where does one go to find a simple chair and desk to write that 10-page PoliSci final and study for the last Orgo exam? Here’s Bwog’s list of go-to study spots for finals season.

Library Spaces

  • Law Library (lie and say you need a book they have there)
  • Lehman library is so underrated!
  • Milstein 4th floor (must get there before 10 am)
  • Butler 4th floor because there are always seats.
  • NoCo! Usually not too packed.

Cafes

  • Cafe Wallabout (x3).
  • Dodge Hall/Pulitzer Joe’s Coffees. Sometimes the noise is comforting.
  • Cafe East after hours.

Classrooms

  • Empty Pupin classrooms for a scary-but-focused vibe.
  • An empty Kent seminar classroom.
  • HAMILTON CLASSROOMS MY BELOVED! (chalkboard studying is so sexy)

Lounges

  • Barnard first-years, take advantage of the Brooks lounge.
  • Furnald lounge if you pretend to be a Furnald resident (it works).
  • Lerner piano lounges.
  • Any and all residence hall lounges.
  • The Kraft Center lounge.

Other

  • Diana 3 red carrels.
  • Hear me out, Schermerhorn Extension.
  • Math Stacks for the most deafening silence you can ever imagine.
