Located on the third floor of Jewell Hall, this literature-stuffed study closet is an introvert’s dream. It’s perfectly placed in the heart of the English department, so you can bother your professors mid-study sesh. While this room does not have a designated number, it can be easily spotted directly across from room 313.

Be sure to follow the rules and pick up after yourself because nobody wants to deal with your garbage. If someone is already in the study room, that’s okay! This spot can handle two intellectuals. If there is no more room, you can always hang out in the common area nearby.

The best part about the secret study closet is that it is secluded and quiet. I don’t know about you, but I love a good cave to hide in. There is also an entire library’s worth of books in there, so if you need reference material, look no further!
