NYU Steinhardt School of Culture, Education, &Human Development

I love studying at the lobby of Pless Hall. It’s got a great view. Although it’s a little limited in the number of outlets, and it could get very loud. The chairs with the trays on them are pretty comfortable but there’s usually not enough space if you’re working on a lot of things.
Overall a good place to study if you’re trying to kill some time.

The building itself is old and crumbling in some areas. They’ve been repairing the front entrance and waiting area since I started my grad school program. The security guards just sit there and idle but they do check EVERYBODY that enters the building so be sure to have your student ID! They don’t let you go further without it. You have to be on the lookout for available elevators. With a little loud music or noise, you’ll miss the «ding» sound from the elevators so look out for the lights. But this building needs more lighting and better clean-​up. It feels like pieces of the wall are about to fall on you and with all the live insects I’ve seen during school, you won’t want to stay in the lobby for more than a few minutes.
Good computer lab on the 2^nd floor and restrooms are there also!
Stop by the Occupational Therapy Dept and promote OT!!!
