Who's the bomb...? Just kidding. The COM lounge has a ton of comfy chairs to relax, and also many tables for students to use when working on group projects. Tends to get crowded quick!

The best thing about this location isn't the building itself, it's the lawn, where you'll often find students lounging, little kids playing and (I kid you not) puppies.

Mac labs reach temperatures between 10 and 110 degrees, so make sure you have enough layers to take off OR put on.

Bring a full battery on your laptop. Most of the classrooms don't have enough outlets, and a 3-hour class without your computer can seem long.

writing center in the basement is a bit more trustworthy than the university-wide writing center, IMO.

COM opens doors- literally. There are plenty of ways to navigate this building w/o touching a door knob.
