Find quiet on campus: NGU’s subtle study spots

Find quiet on campus: NGU’s subtle study spots

Seth Atkins, Visual Arts Editor

College life is filled with tests, assignments and exams. It can be hard to find time to juggle it all, and finding a place to study or do homework can be even harder. The world around us is full of distractions that can keep us from focusing on the tasks at hand.

No need to worry, Crusaders: the North Greenville campus has multiple study spots that you may haven’t thought about. To help you envision using these places, I took my friends Rylee Merrill, Camden Howell, Savannah Williamson, freshmen, and Ashley Rosa, senior, out on an adventure to show just how useful these peaceful spots can be.

The Stud field.
Merrill, Camden, Williamson, and Rosa in a group study out on the stud field. Just walk right out of the stud to this field with your Chick-Fil-A and get some some work done.
Picnic tables on campus.
Merrill and Williamson using one of the many picnic tables across campus for a study session. These are perfect to lay out your materials and get to work.
Grass area right in the middle of campus.
Howell flipping through pages of his book. This grass provides and nice, soft place to sit on a nice day.
Swings on campus.
Williamson sitting on the swings, as she reads one of her textbooks. There are many swings placed around campus. All you have to do is find an open one and read that chapter in your textbook.
Prayer garden.
Rosa is taking some time to update her bullet journal next to this quiet pond. If you need some peace and quiet, this small nook, located in between the chapel building and the music building, is the place to go.
Gazebo.
Howell is sitting in the gazebo looking on his computer. The gazebo can be seen right as you come in the main entrance, and works great to sit in some shade.
Entrance Fountain.
Merrill studies her notes as the water is rushing behind. There many benches in this area on campus. If you like the sound of flowing water and being in nature, then try this spot next time you study.
The Greenroom.
Rosa is seen reading and highlighting her book on a comfy couch. This room is located in the Billingsley Theatre, and is the perfect inside spot to finish assignments.
