I have been studying at Franklin and Marshall, our fine institution, for four years and have, over time, learned the value of location, location, location. Where do you find yourself getting the most work accomplished? Is it in the privacy of your dorm room or off-campus apartment, surrounded by the noise of the espresso machine in Jazzman's, at a nice big table in Shad-Fack, or amidst the choas of the college center? Let me divulge my secrets to acheiving academic success with you. The campus is full of unknown places to study, so get your pen out and take note...
If you're looking for a place to do work on your laptop, try:
The Academy Room (2nd floor Shad-Fack)
The Periodicals Room (1st floor Shad-Fack)
The Atrium in the Life Sciences & Philosophy Building
Joseph International Center (open until 8pm Sunday-Thursday)
The Women's Center Lobby (Lower Level of College Center)
The Writer's House (open until 10pm, Sunday-Thursday)
If you want a quiet place to read/ write:
All of the above places are great
2nd and 3rd foors of Shad-Fack
East or West Patio of College Center
The Other Room (North Pine Street)
Lawn of the Theological Seminary
English Department Common Room (3rd floor Keiper)
Places with a little more action/ people:
Ben's Underground
Commons of MBT and Ware College Houses
College Center (between 2pm and 5pm, and after 9pm are tranquil, for the most part)
College Corner Cafe (the bagel place)
Hope this helps. Once you find a good spot, it's up to you if you want to share it with the world. I was selfish and waited until my last 7 weeks of college!
Peace,
Erin
