Description
Having available and sufficient study and community spaces on a college campus can impact the productivity and happiness of the students who attend. A survey was used to identify the locations where Lindenwood students perform certain activities such as studying alone and spending time with a group as well as to collect students’ thoughts on the current spaces on campus including optional suggestions. Students were asked if the spaces fit their purpose, if they feel satisfied with these spaces, and if they believe these spaces could impact their college experience. Preliminary common themes include satisfaction with the types of spaces, specifically in the LARC, but a request for more of them, as well as more outdoor spaces like the Pavilion. Students mentioned how the current individual and group study rooms are helpful, but they fill up too quickly. Suggestions include a student center where students can congregate and even have games like pool, as well as opening the Butler Library for more study spaces.
