CAS Classroom<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">If you know, you know. Obviously, you would not be sneaking into a full class in session, but instead find an empty room to set up shop and get working. It\u2019s extremely versatile; if you need quiet, a room to yourself is the perfect place. If you are working on a group project, there\u2019s plenty of space for your teammates to work together. Some rooms have whiteboards that can be great for brainstorming or problem solving. It\u2019s also one of the few academic buildings that does not lock its doors on the weekend, so it\u2019s almost always accessible.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>2. COM Student Lounge<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Speaking of team projects, the study lounge is a great spot for collaborative projects. With tables and access to charging blocks and other tools, the student lounge is a convenient spot for any COM student. It\u2019s not a silent study space, which makes it good for collaborative studying, but if nothing else you could plug in headphones and lock in alone if that\u2019s more your speed. If all else fails, look no further than COM.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>3. Data Science Building<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The new \u201cbook stack\u201d building across from Warren Towers has already become known as a solid study space. With an elevated study space at the lobby window overlooking Comm Ave, and a Saxby\u2019s right inside, you can\u2019t do much better than that when it comes to the atmosphere.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>4. The Charles River Esplanade<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">With the weather getting nicer, a peaceful outdoor study space can never go wrong. Whether you\u2019re using a bench along the scenic river or setting up a blanket on the grass, there\u2019s plenty of room to get your prep in for exam season while still getting some much needed sun and fresh air. Just make sure to stock up on allergy medicine first.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>With the final weeks of classes coming up and exam season following, here are some spots to look out for if you\u2019re in need of a go-to study space. 1.
