Schow is where all the books, bound journals and periodicals relating to science, math, and psychology are kept. It is also a popular studying location for many students. It is located between the [[Physics]] and [[Chemistry]] buildings in the [[Science Quad]].
==Pros==
*The [[Writing Workshop]] takes place in Schow on school nights.
*The [[Eco-Cafe]] is just upstairs.
*The bathrooms are much closer, and more attractive, than in [[Sawyer]].
*There are nice soft couches.
*The Schow Public printer is quite reliable.
*There is a copier for a dime a page. Sometimes they even let you copy things behind the desk for free.
==Cons==
*Schow's acoustics are kind of terrible for a library. If you drop your pencil, or sneeze, or turn a page in your book, everyone around you will hear it.
==Fun facts==
*The chairs are adjustable in about 37 different ways, and each cost $500. The admissions office tours look down at Schow from the atrium to point out this fact to all prospective students and their families.
