And if your alone, there is
always something more impor
tant to be done. Writing a letter
to your Danish penpal or
sharpening all the kitchen
knifes suddenly become priori
ty matters whan faced with an
eight-page paper on Hegel’s
dialectical view of history
If you ever want to get
anything done, get out of your
home and go someplace where
fewer distractions occur
The Beanery coffeehouse at
790 E. 14th Ave.
Possibly the hippest place
near campus to study, the
Beanery provides a backdrop of
black coffee, cigarette smoke,
and a steady hum of conversa
tion and music to work by.
At first glance, the dimly lit.
often noisy coffeehouse would
seem the worst place to attempt
to concentrate on homework.
But many a term paper has been
successfully written here, in
spired by three espressos and
the funky atmosphere.
In addition to assorted
beverages, the Beanery offers a
full breakfast menu as well as
soups and pastries. Studiers are
welcome as long as they don’t
monopolize tables during meal
hours. So put on your black
beret and turtle neck and check
it out.
University Library
Patrons of this popular study
hall will be shocked this fall to
find most of the study tables on
the second and third floors
replaced by new bookshelves.
Plenty of study areas remain on
the first floor, though.
The library is well lit and
quiet, and provides easy access
to research materials, making it
a good study spot during
midterms and finals. But some
frequent the library for less
academic reasons — the upper
floors have gained a reputation
as a prime pickup spot, ideal for
silent flirtation.
Still others shy away from the
library. The harsh florescent
light and uniform rows of tables
and books can make it seem too
sterile and uncomfortable, like a
giant hostipital — or morgue.
Library lounge in the base
ment of Main Library
As the name implies, this
place is more relaxed than its
relative upstairs. Hem you can
eat. smoke and talk without fear
of being slapped on the hand by
some yardstick toting librarian.
A good place to go when you
get tired of the Main Library.
Munchies are provided by ven
ding machines.
AAA Library in Lawerence
Hall
A little known . but quiet and
cozy study hole. Long wooden
tables accommodate a wide
variety of students, from well
dressed sorority women to high
fashion architecture students
There is good lighting, but food
or smoking is not allowed. Get a
seat on the upstairs loft for max
imum atmosphere.
The Fishbowl in the EMU
All around, one of the best
places to study on campus. The
name is derived from the
aquarium-like glass enclosure
around the architectural
marvel. The windows allow
natural light in while letting the
"fish" see out.
Although it is also popular
place for socializing, the con
versaton level is usually
tolerable. Best of all. the
Fishbowl is adjacent to the EMU
Deli, which provides an ex
cellent selection of food and
drink.
Its central location makes the
Fishbowl perfect for studying
between classes It is a popular

Your Spot, anywhere
Almost always the best place
to study is that out-of-the-way
place you find yourself It could
be on the grass under an oak
tree, at a desk outside your 2:30
class, or inside your favorite
cafe. There are thousands of
nooks and burrows around the
campus waiting to be
discovered or rediscovered.
