I have been attending Purdue for about 7 months now, it is very hard to find a decent place to study, hicks is okay, but i have found Lawson is the best place to study it is relatively quiet but the best aspect it offers is there is an abundance of students who are willing to help with math ,computer science, and technology related problems (Lawson is the computer science building) which is good for anyone in who is a math cs or any technology related major, computers are rarely in short supply unless it is a day when a cs project is due.
