Supervised Study Rules

  • You must be actively studying, and you must earn a minimum of one hour each visit for Supervised Study.
  • You cannot be on any websites or applications that are not related to your coursework.
  • You must use either the Solarium or study rooms. You may not use an office with nametags on the door unless you ask for permission with the front desk.
  • You may listen to music if it is on your computer and if you are wearing headphones and listening at a level that is not disruptive to others. However, it cannot take your full attention.
  • You may not use the couches for supervised study time — only the tables and desk chairs. Only if all other seats are filled may you then use the couches.
  • If you are using a laptop, you must sit so that any Hub staff member can see your screen when they walk by.
  • You cell phone must be kept in either a bookbag or pocket. You may not use your phone unless given permission. This includes texting, checking email, making phone calls, using the internet, etc. If phone use becomes a problem, we will have you leave your phone at the front desk, or sign you out.
  • You are not allowed to move furniture out of any space in The Learning Hub, including the Solarium or our study rooms.
  • You must keep either the overhead lights or the lamp on in our study rooms and/or offices during your study hours. Please turn off when leaving.
  • If you need to step out to use the restroom or anything else, you must notify the front office. If it will take longer than five minutes, you must sign out and then sign back in.
  • Failure to follow these guidelines, will result in you being asked to leave the supervised study, and in you not being allowed to use The Learning Hub for your supervised study hours for the rest of the semester.
