Hey y’all!
I get this question a lot from prospective students: where are my favorite places to study?
Here are a few of my favorite places:
- Wild Bills: A former coffee shop turned into study lounge, it has sunny windows and offers a nice view while doing work. Located on the third floor of North Hall, this is an underrated place.
- IMU window seats: On the second floor of the IMU, there a huge glass windows facing the street and Pentacrest. The chairs are cushy with attached tables so I can easily set a laptop down and people watch. Some of my best stories have been created while sitting here, so writers, consider!
- IMU Patio: On nice days, I love sitting by the river and watching people walk around while getting a nice tan.
- Currier lounge/courtyard: Currier Residence Hall is for anyone to study one! their ground floor has a very aesthetic study location and an outdoor courtyard with benches.
- Voxman Music Library: This place is gorgeous and totally worth the walk.
- It is technically in downtown Iowa City, but a five minute walk from the east side residence halls, so I count it! Midnight Coffee is a fun coffee shop to study in. They have delicious seasonal matcha and gluten free baked goods.
Here are just a few of my current favorite places, but there are so many to discover!
