Start your fall semester out right. Join a library study community!

Each group will meet one day per week in Waldo Library or Swain Library in Sangren Hall. Our study communities will help you:

  • Meet new people. 
  • Develop smart habits.
  • Be accountable.
  • Get work done.

Whether you’re a procrastinator who needs some accountability or you just want to meet new people, our study communities are helpful for every WMU student. Sign up for a group by Sept. 16.

How do study communities work?

Students who sign up will be assigned to a group that meets one evening per week in Waldo Library or Swain Library in Sangren Hall.

A volunteer study group leader will kick off each session, and then you can dive into your work. Focus on homework and study in a relaxed and social environment. We’ll even provide snacks to keep you energized!

If you attend at least five sessions, you’ll be entered into a drawing for a chance to win a prize!
