Oberlin's Hidden Gems: Spaces That Enhance College Life
Oberlin College students have a wealth of spaces to call their own, each offering a unique atmosphere for studying, relaxation, and community building. The Mudd Sundeck, a quiet outdoor spot, and the Adam Joseph Lewis Center Library (AJLC), with its calming interior, are just two of the many favorites among students.
As a Bonner Scholar, the author quickly found comfort in the Bonner Center, located in the basement of Mary Church Terrell Main Library. This welcoming space is dedicated to community-based learning and is actively used by student corps and other student groups for various events and activities, fostering a familial atmosphere.
The AJLC, home to the Environmental Studies Department, is another gem on campus. Its small, quiet library on the weekends is a favorite among students seeking solitude for their studies. The entire building offers a calming atmosphere, enhanced by natural light and waterfalls on the first floor.
The fourth floor of Mary Church Terrell Main Library, often overlooked, boasts a spacious section bathed in abundant natural light, making it an ideal spot for studying. The Mudd Sundeck, accessible from the fourth floor, provides an outdoor alternative with limited distractions, perfect for students who prefer al fresco learning.
Beyond the campus, the Oberlin neighborhoods nearby offer enjoyable walks with sidewalks and homey houses, providing a change of scenery from the academic environment.
From the Bonner Center's community spirit to the AJLC's serene atmosphere, and from the Mudd Sundeck's outdoor studying spot to the charming Oberlin neighborhoods, these favorite spots can significantly enhance college life. The author encourages students to explore and discover their own favorite spaces on campus, making their time at Oberlin more enjoyable and productive.
