The word “common” stems from community and sharing, and this is precisely the idea behind the creation of common spaces. Smart phones and technology often lead to people being more isolated. Learning common areas promote a comfortable, collaborative setting where technology can still be used but in a more socially beneficial way. These spaces provide students with a welcoming environment where they can come together, share ideas and experiences, or just hang out and have fun.

Learning common spaces can be different in every building depending on the areas available to use. Some commons may simply be a different approach to a library setting, while others may be converting a hallway or stairwell into a more functional space. Our comfortable lounge seating, café tables and desks, are designed to accommodate your learning commons needs. With mobile and technology options, you can easily rearrange our furniture to adjust to your immediate needs.
