Great Places to Meet, Study, Use Your Laptop in the College of Education!

Are you comfortable when you’re hunkered down on the floor in the hallway next to a power outlet to charge your laptop battery? It sure doesn’t look like it!

What you may not realize is that there are several great places to study, meet with classmates, and charge your laptop in the Sánchez Building and Bellmont Hall. We’d love to see you use these areas more—so get up off the floor and check them out!

SZB 536

On the 5th floor of the Sánchez Building inside the Learning Technology Center’s main 5th floor entrance, is a very large student study area. There is seating for more than 40, including large round tables perfect for study group meetings, cushioned lounge chairs, and counter height tables for individual use. Electrical outlets are within easy reach of all the tables. There is also a media:scape collaboration table, where up to six laptops can connect to two flat panel monitors.

SZB, Third Floor, SW Corner

Located at the southwest end of the Sánchez Building third floor are three sofas and two round tables. There are three fourplex electrical outlets here.

SZB, Third, Fourth, and Fifth Floors, West Side

If you want to read, eat lunch, or gaze out the floor-to-ceiling windows, there are three café tables with six chairs just west of the escalators on the third, fourth, and fifth floors. Power outlets are located at the base of the windows beneath each table, so it’s a great spot to use your laptop too!

BEL 1005 

In the Department of Kinesiology and Health Education, the Student Study and Advising Area is located on the 10th floor of Bellmont Hall, thanks to the generosity of Men’s Athletic Director Deloss Dodds. The large area is filled with tables and chairs, couches, a microwave oven, and even a large screen TV! Wireless network access is also available.
