One of the exciting new tools that we're rolling out in Atkins to actually further enhance
the space is around group study room reservations.
And currently, a student can go out and they can book the space using a generic name and
add their group members so that they can find what room they are studying in.
And what we're rolling out is something that we're calling Study Connect.
It will actually allow the students to create a public group, either based on the faculty
member or the course name and section number, so that I can simply say that, as an example,
I'm studying for Anthropology 101.
And, it's an open group, and so anyone can come into the group study application and
say, "huh, I wonder if anyone is studying for their Anthropology 101 exam today in the
library."
They can click find the room, and then join the group.
So we're excited that this functionality is rolling out for Atkins and then we're already
thinking in terms of how do we make this available for the rest of campus to create ad hoc study
groups, even in other spaces outside of Atkins.
