Continuing on my theme of beautiful places to sit and study, Purdue's Memorial Mall seems to be a very popular choice among students. Other than its surprisingly quiet atmosphere (despite the thousands of people walking around, the MM seems to remain relatively quiet) the Memorial Mall also offers as much space as you want/need, much needed shade in the blistering sun, and a very aesthetically pleasing landscape to lose yourself in. As you may be able to tell by now, I enjoy trying find places around campus (other than my sorority house) to study/spend extra time throughout my day. Spending time outside and taking in my surroundings is one of my favorite things to do, and the Memorial Mall is a great place to do so.
This may sound a little shallow, but one of the things I was looking for while visiting colleges when I was a senior in high school was a pretty campus that would actually allow me to sit around and take in nature. The minute I stepped onto Purdue's Memorial Mall I knew this was the place for me. The chris-crossed sidewalks and huge trees were definitely a huge selling point for me (if I would have known about the squirrels that might have helped too). Little did I know that it would actually be where I spend a majority of my time in between my classes and my free time. Once again, Memorial Mall is at its finest in the warmer months, so go check it out for yourself now so you don't miss it!!
