Stanford study spaces

At Stanford, students study all over campus – on a sunny lawn, amidst the buzz of a busy café and in the quiet of a reading room. Some students find the contemplative solitude they need at a picnic table in a sculpture garden. Others gather in small groups – settling into wooden chairs or comfy couches – to work on projects together. University Photographer Linda A. Cicero has captured images of students doing the hard work of studying in a multitude of campus spaces, indoors and out.
