10. West Campus Library.
To many, it's a home away from home. And to others, its a decaying germ pit -- like how old are the bathrooms really? But either way, WCL is there for you 24 hrs a (week) day and full of outlets, the most beautiful people on campus, and occasionally bats. We wouldn't trade it for the world.
9. Mitchell Physics.
Ew, who would ever venture to the engineering side of campus? Exactly the point. Not only will you run into no one who wants to socialize, you will be surrounded by people with much harder lives than you -- unless you are actually an engineer (rip). Bonus: study breaks can consist of waiting for that really fantastic pendulum to hit the block, thereby killing a solid hour of productivity.
8. The Rec Center.
Easily the most overlooked place on campus to actually study and not workout -- not only is the wifi strongest here, the food is fantastic (shoutout to the quesadillas), and the poor souls falling off the rockfall are always there for you when you need a good laugh.
7. Sweet Eugene's Coffee House.
Donuts are 70 cents. You can be broke and failing, but the donuts are still 70 cents. What more could you want, desire or need?
6. Klehburg Animal & Food Science Center.
If you can have enough self control to not immediately fall asleep upon sitting down on the incredible leather and cow skin couches, Klehburg can really bring you to your study prime. It locks from the outside at 8 p.m. so you have no option of leaving and coming back thereby forcing you to focus. And word on the street is the water is still connected to the showers in the basement aka you never have to leave.
5. Holiday Inn Express.
Possibly the main perk of living in College Station, the Holiday Inn is conveniently located and surrounded by a plentiful parking lot, leaving it a step above all on-campus libraries. Comfy couches, smooth jazz, and a complimentary breakfast if you never leave and manage to pass for a guest -- talk about all-nighter motivation.
4. The Bush School Political Science And Economics Library.
If you can look past the fancy suits and people that clearly have their lives put together way more than you, George's stomping grounds will serve you well. The front desk always has candy, the silent room is a great place for naps, and the thought of one day having to be a graduate student will be all the motivation you need to make that A.
3. Student Computing Center.
Remember when you were a freshman and thought the SCC was God's gift to TAMU? A 24-hour computer lab that has a second floor where absolutely nothing but socializing gets done? Wow, hashtag blessed. The couches may have been there since only men were enrolled here, but that's what makes it truly authentic. Take a walk down memory lane and study on the second floor once again where everything, even the bacteria, is frozen in time.
2. That one really fantastic couch your best friend has.
We all have that friend. How did they get a u-shaped couch through the door and why is it automatically comfier than my own couch? Easily top five places to study because, on that couch, studying means "Grey's Anatomy" marathons while your accounting book is propped open in your lap creating the illusion that you really are learning.
1. Your bed.
Blankets, pillows, and no one to see you cry. One more could you want?
Happy studying!
