THE SPOT

the Social Aspect

Who says The Learning Commons

is "only" about the Academics?

the Learning Commons offers:

  • plenty of space to stretch out
  • puzzles and word games to keep you occupied
  • a central location to gather with friends or space to meet new ones!

Clubs & Organizations

Looking to Meet Someone New

or

Do You Need a Spot to Hang Out Between Classes?

Sure, the Learning Commons offers:

  • several spaces for group study
  • and three private group study rooms
  • But, they also have Two Floors of cozy corners with chairs and tables to catch up with classmates

Do you feel JCTC lacks a student club or organization that peeks your interest?

Then, utilize the Learning Commons as a space to create your own.

Librarians are happy to assist!

Why Not? It's Free!

Who Can't Relate to the Love of

"Free Services"

the Learning Commons is a

"VALUABLE

FREE RESOURCE"

As a income challenged college student I do my very best to identify the most inexpensive resources available to me

Free Career Reearch Resources

free access to Occupational Outlook Handbooks, a career database, career guides, and numerous books

Research Database for Course work and Independent Study

WHY NOT? IT'S FREE!!

articles, books, academic paper, video, educational material for course assignments, and even independent studies

Learning Guides:

written by JCTC Librarians for students. Include study guides, practice tests, tips, tutorials, and so much more

if someone walked up to you, and gave you a $100 bill with no expectation of it ever being repaid, wouldn't you happily take the unexpected windfall?

I know many of us would!

College Resources Such As the Learning Commons Can Be Excellent Tools in Paving the Path Toward Future Success!

Bite Size Tid-Bits of Information

Southwest Learning Commons Edition!!

Did You Know!

  • There is only one requirement to access the LC's plethora of resources. You simply need to be a JCTC Student or Faculty member (and something tells me you won't have any issues with that!)

  • Southwest Learning Commons is officically named after a hard-working female educator who dedicated 40+ years of her life to the growth and sucess of of both JCTC and it's students. Her name is Dr. Diane Calhoun-French

  • Napping: When you were in High School napping in school was frowned upon. But, now you're in college, and if you need a few moments of shut eye between classes or studying, you are welcome to get comfy in the LC!

  • Replacement Student ID's: if you're in need of a new student ID, because the original somehow vanished into thin air (or you burned it because you hated the original photo ;-), no worries. The LC's got you covered. For a $10 replacement fee you can get a brand spanking new card

  • There are dozens upon dozens of Encyclopedia's in the LC. The JCTC Downtown Campus doesn't even have a stand alone reference section. Southwest Campus LC has Encyclopdias such as the Encyclopedia of Body Adornment (a.k.a. Tattoos), Encyclopedia of Religion, Encyclopedia of Witchcraft, Encyclopedia of Ghost and Spirits, Encyclopedia of the Victorian Era, Encyclopedia of Native American Tribes, Encyclopdia of Fishing, Encyclopedia of Volcanoes, Encyclopedia of Art, and much, much more....

Hey! Follow Me. There's One Last Tid-Bit...

What Follows is the Stone-Cold Truth of How the Southwest Campus Learning Commons Librarians Really Feel About You When You Walk Through Their Doors.....

Remember:

"Successful Students Take the Time to Utilize Their Most Valuable Resources!"

Yep, it's True!

Don't Believe Me?

Why don't you slide on down to the Southwest Campus Learning Commons and find out for yourself?

I'll See You There!
