I have found that its very unproductive to study in my dorm room as I love talking to my roommate and often get distracted with other things. I find it really beneficial to study outside of my dorm. Sometimes spending too much time in my room can make it feel like I never leave! I&#8217;ve done a lot of exploring and here are some of my favorite places to catch up and get ahead on schoolwork!<\/p>\n<h3>Java House<\/h3>\n<p>This place is my absolute favorite because of the outdoor patio. There is plenty of seating for indoor or outdoor studying. It&#8217;s connected to the Heirloom Salad Company, so there are lots of options for salads, sandwiches, coffee, or a pastry.<\/p>\n<h3>Main Library<\/h3>\n<p>This one is basic, but I do love the campus&#8217; Main Library. It&#8217;s super nice to have the Food for Thought Caf\u00e9, where you can use a flex meal or grab a Starbucks! The library offers a quiet and productive space to get work done, and it&#8217;s very close to all of my classes!<\/p>\n<h3>Poindexter Coffee<\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/blog.admissions.uiowa.edu\/ava\/files\/2024\/10\/IMG_1975.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-59 alignright\" src=\"http:\/\/blog.admissions.uiowa.edu\/ava\/files\/2024\/10\/IMG_1975-221x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"144\" height=\"195\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.admissions.uiowa.edu\/ava\/files\/2024\/10\/IMG_1975-221x300.jpg 221w, https:\/\/blog.admissions.uiowa.edu\/ava\/files\/2024\/10\/IMG_1975-754x1024.jpg 754w, https:\/\/blog.admissions.uiowa.edu\/ava\/files\/2024\/10\/IMG_1975-768x1043.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blog.admissions.uiowa.edu\/ava\/files\/2024\/10\/IMG_1975-300x407.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blog.admissions.uiowa.edu\/ava\/files\/2024\/10\/IMG_1975.jpg 884w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 144px) 100vw, 144px\" \/><\/a>Poindexter is located on the lower level of the Graduate Hotel. I love this place because it looks like a cave inside and it&#8217;s always quiet. My friends and I love to study here together!<\/p>\n<h3>Burge Hall<\/h3>\n<p>The basement of Burge has tons of tables, booths, study rooms, and a few whiteboards. This has been great for working on group projects or recording assignment video submissions. This is also nice because it&#8217;s very close to a printer and my dorm!<\/p>\n<p>I hope everyone has a lovely rest of the month!<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In honor of midterms that have already come and gone, I have done a lot (and I mean A LOT) of studying around campus and downtown.
