Here's Princeton Panda's quick and easy guide to some of Princeton's finest study spaces.
Frist
The old favourite.
Pros: Easy access to food. Enough going on to keep you occupied. Lots of people around in case you need to vent a little.
Cons: Requires massive self-control to avoid spending the whole time talking to people.
3rd floor Architecture Building
Bit of a niche place; you won’t run into many non-architects here.
Pros: Great light, few distractions, centre of campus.
Cons: Not enough distractions?
Basement of McCosh (English Building) - Entryway B
Somewhere to go if you're looking for somewhere basically unpopulated, and you don't have your own carrel yet
Pros: Quite isolated, with a computer cluster, bathroom, fountains near at hand (through the weird passageway at the end of the corridor with pipes)
Cons: Gets cold in the winter, no sunlight because it's in the basement
Basement of Patton/Wright (but really more Patton) - Entryway 8
Table with chairs and also a pair of couches,
Pros: Has a small kitchenn nearby, if you're feeling peckish and you want to cook something up for yourself
Cons: Also has laundry and elevator nearby, which means that there are people walking by now and again
