Help students study in style at Fondren Library

$3,500

Expand seating capacity in the popular Prothro Learning Commons, a collaborative study area of Fondren Library.

Description

Prothro Learning Commons in Fondren Library Center is one of the busiest areas on campus where students spend hours studying and working in groups. Traffic in the library increased by 40% during the fall semester 2017. Whether studying alone or working collaboratively, students need study spaces that are inviting and that stimulate their brain power. Your generous donation could ensure seats for all in Fondren.

  • $500 will provide a small study table
  • $700 will provide one half booth seat
  • $1400 will provide double booth seating

“I love going to Fondren because there’s a lot of different furniture and spaces for your own style of studying. I like the Learning Commons because it’s busy and loud with other people studying. But, it’s often hard to find a place to study because all of the tables and chairs are taken.”
