Where is the best place to nap on campus?

I Have a 1 hr 20 min break between classes, which is just enough time to catch a nap but not enough time to make it worth going home for.

Sounds like you could squeeze an Econ class in there. You might as well get some credit hours while you're at it.

Parks 3rd or 4th floor has some good chairs and people don't climb that high.

One of the two big things you need to find your first year....a good napping spot and a good place to take a #2.

When I was a student, I found a comfy chair in the Food Sciences on the second floor. That building is shaped in an odd way and it was on the Forker side of the building, a random hallway that didn't go to anywhere, but there was a chair. :)

ha, can you get a hotel room at the MU? That would be funny. I would think one of the higher library floors would be good though.

Carver has some pretty nice chairs, but you'd be visible to a lot of people. The 4th floor of the library has some quality spots.

West side of the upper floors of the library with the sun on you in the afternoon.

I always used to use the (alwayssssssssssssssssssss empty) reading/extra classroom on the sixth floor of Ross Hall (the Department of History). Big desk to keep you hidden behind, soft chairs, you can lean them over and use the back of it as a reverse pillow, cool in the summer, warm in the winter, and rather dark/dim.

Other than that, I would find an empty meeting room in the Memorial Union (the ones on the third floor, back towards the parking deck, are good, so is the one at the end of the NE hallway looking out towards the Campanile). The library is *okay,* but there was always just enough traffic to make it suboptimal, for me. The stacks are really uncomfortable with those hard, tiled floors, too, you need yourself some carpet and soft chairs to do this right.
