“I like to study in my bedroom because it’s where I feel the most comfortable and I have the room to myself.”
— UI student Tim Kandl

“The [Main] Library because there’s not as many distractions as my house.”
— UI student T.J. Gorman

“I study at Bruegger’s, because the food is great and it’s quite quiet.”
— UI student Johnny Connors

“I like studying in the Media Services Department of the Main Library, because it’s really quiet and I feel like I’m really productive there.”
— UI student Navi Bajwa

“I like studying on my futon when it’s unfolded, because I can spread out all my things and be comfortable at the same time.”
— UI student Darren Freeman

“I currently work at the UI [Hospitals and Clinics] with a phlebotomy student line, and it’s great because I don’t get fired for doing a little studying during down time. You can’t get much better motivation than getting paid to study.”
— UI student Ashley Hinzmann

“I typically bring a book to Givanni’s restaurant with me to keep myself occupied during slow stretches at work.”
— UI student Alicia Simmons
