Finding the best study spots at NSU

Jonathan Quiroz, freshman biology major, said he likes the communal living rooms in Commons for studying because of the convenience and comfort.

“I like the Commons community room the most since I live there, and it is an easy way to hang out and get work done,” Quiroz said.
“I go with friends, and we play some Ping-Pong, but we also get productive.”

NSU’s Davie campus has a number of good study spots for students to enjoy.

Chancey Cherry, sophomore neuroscience major, enjoys studying on the second floor of the Alvin Sherman Library.

“Even though it is the floor where people talk, it is not super loud, so you can still be productive,” Cherry said. “The classroom in Leo Goodwin is another favorite place of mine.”

Macklyne Nicolas, junior biology major, enjoys studying in the library’s study rooms, which are available on the second, third and fourth floors. The study rooms can be reserved for up to two hours at a time, either online or at the circulation desk.

“It is relatively loud on the second floor, in my opinion, so the study rooms are where I like to go and collaborate with people,” Nicolas said.
Some students also enjoy Florida weather and working outside. There are several spots outside where students can work, including the tables in front of the Parker Building, the gazebo in the medicinal garden and the chairs right outside of the UC, near the Flight Deck.

“The gazebo places outside of Flight Deck is a study spot I recommend if you want to be outside. It is a calm and chill spot, but there can be insects at times,” Nicolas said.

If students want another social scene to study, they can go to Einstein Bros. Bagels, which has seating, music, and food and drinks that students can purchase. It is conveniently located in the Carl DeSantis building, so students can easily get to their classes.
