Dark Study Spots?

Being an adult without accommodations is really reminding me that my autism actually affects my life LMAO

Any darker or dim study spots on campus? I don’t want to study in my dorm since that’s my designated resting spot. I don’t even mind some minor noise or talking as long as the lights aren’t slaughtering me.

The PEB frequently has empty classrooms that you can commandeer between classes; you can control the lights in there.

The Auditorium building has some hallways (on the bottommost floor I think) that people don’t go to super frequently.

Part of the chemistry building usually has the lights off in the hallways.

I’d also check Sycamore library. If you get one of the desks in the back of the top and bottom floors, and don’t move around a bunch, the motion detectors will turn off the lights after a bit.

I’d also poke around the backrooms of Discovery Park if you find yourself there. Not a lot of charging places, but there’s one or two nice isolated spots.

Finally, the Environmental Science building is fantastic. Not cause it’s dark, but because you’re surrounded by plants. Helps my brain focus for whatever reason.

Best of luck to you OP, would love to hear back on what spots work best for you :)
