Study Hall: Monday Nights in December
Need somewhere quiet to study and work on your assignments? Do you want to ask someone about study tips and strategies? Do you just want a quiet place to work, but don't want to study alone?
What is Study Hall?
- Study Hall gives you the opportunity to study somewhere quiet, but still have Renison staff nearby if you have any questions or need some help.
- Study Hall sessions are drop-in, which means you can stay for 30 minutes or the full two hours - you decide!
- Peer Leaders will be there to monitor, answer questions, and help with study strategies.
When and where?
First three Mondays in December (December 4, 11, 18)
8:00pm - 10:00pm

In each episode, senior students share tips for success in different areas of university student life.
