1. The Upperhouse

This is located by Lucky Apt and UHS and is hands-down my favorite study spot to do homework and other tasks I need to get done. The space is super open, welcoming, aesthetic, and has the comfiest seating with a bunch of open light and space. Great for independent and group studies. (the picture featured above is my favorite spot to study at, at the upper house--one of many perfect spaces to sit at here)

2. The Student Activity Center (SAC)

The Student Activity Center, also known as the SAC, is literally in the same building/area as the UpperHouse. This area has more tables and desk areas that allow you to work in a group or individual setting away from your typical scene. Super private and inclusive, so you can be the most efficient version of yourself. (the picture above is not a image of the SAC)

3. Helen C. White Library

Again, this picture is clearly not what Helen C White College Library looks like, but it is a library (I tend to not take pictures of the places I am trying to study at, haha). However, I love stopping by Helen C White to get some homework done before classes, or when I need to get some serious work done since it is completely silent here. Also, who does not love the window seat at College Library-- the view is amazing.

4. Memorial Union

Mem. U is the place to go if you need to get some group work done since it is not the quietest environment ever, since anyone around madison comes here to meet up with old friends. I tend to go here with groups, and also in-between classes since there is coffee, ice-cream, and food there--> plus when it is nice out and you want to do work outside, this is the place to go since it is right next to the lake.

5. Starbucks // Grace Coffee & Co.

If you have read any of my past articles, I am an H-U-G-E and A-V-I-D coffee drinker (sorry that was extra). Whenever I need a pick me up to wake up and feel productive I tend to go to either Starbucks or Grace Coffee Co. to get my work done.

Starbucks is really busy, but there is a good amount of seating so you should be able to find a place to sit. Most of the time, Starbucks is typically quiet and a good space for independent or minimal group study. Plus you can get a good cup of coffee to 'accessorize' your subject materials.

Grace Coffee Co. has more limited seating and more of an independent study area, but is still super aesthetic and wait for it.. there is a DOG there!! Uhm I think that is all I have to say because we all need a dog in our life to help us every now and then.
