The Rackham building is the official University of Michigan graduate school building, and there is a separate entry for the "Rackham Auditorium." I'm writing this place up in order to plug its study space. There are three study halls that unofficially allow varying degrees of noise, but of course, not everyone knows the rules. The East hall is supposed to be more of a social lounge, but there are two separate rooms on either end of the large hall suitable for studying in groups or studying quietly. There are vending machines next door. The West hall is supposed to be a quiet place, but is still set up as a "lounge" with small tables, couches, and other living room furniture. Generally not a problem to find plugs in either the West or East hall, though occasionally I've had issues with the plugs in the rooms adjoining the East hall. The reading room, in between the East and West lounges, is absolutely gorgeous, and is a super-quiet zone. No laptops or cell phones allowed. The main drawback is that this place is closed on weekends. I accidentally broke in one weekend (don't ask) and all the study lounges were locked but I didn't feel like leaving, so I studied in the first floor bathrooms. This sounds more bizarre than it actually was, because there are two gigantic couches in the powder room area of the bathrooms, but even so.

Once again, a beautiful building designed by Albert Kahn. They rehabbed it pretty recently (like within the last 10 years) and kept the 1920s-era authenticity by using replica carpets, curtains---you name it! Absolutely gorgeous with several great, quiet study lounges. Too bad it's not open late at night or on the weekend! Rackham also offers many free classes, movies, and professional development lectures free or pretty close to it for grad students at UM. Don't miss checking this building out!

I love this building - it's probably my favorite on campus. The interiors are expansive and beautiful. Every room is just classic. My favorites, though, are the Graduate Study Rooms on the second floor. No one is ever there - it's quite, light and airy, and doesn't leave with the anxiety of not trying to make a sound like the Law Library does. Unfortunately, it does not have late night hours, otherwise I would have been there every day.

Nostalgia for the 1920s is out of reach of most of the people who frequent this building, but the perfection of 1920s ornate Egyptian-Romanesque-ArtDeco-and-possibly-more-styles makes it a really fun place to visit. If a speaker gets boring, there's always an architectural detail to occupy one's attention (see photo). A fairly recent restoration freshened up all the gold leaf and 20s color palette. I heard that even the rugs and carpets were made to order so as to recreate the architect's design (or was it his folly)?

Woooo-weeeee! Them rooms is faaaaaancy! If you want to feel like you walked into a building and were promptly dipped in gold flake and chandelier dust, you may just want to step into Rackham. Ornate and old school to the max. Marble. Flourishes over the door jambs. Mercy. I do love the comfy, clean, lush feel of the study rooms on the second floor - there's even a (non-functioning, unfortunately) fireplace. It's all very Ivy League Library. The problem for me is that the rooms are SO QUIET. I know some people love reading in a tomb, but I like to believe there's life outside of academia and a truth beyond just book-learnin' so I like to... you know... hear people breathe. Murmur. Produce music. But the kinds of sounds you hear here are tummys rumbling, pages turning, and bodies shifting in chairs. Too quiet for this lass. On lucky days, I go up to the third floor to the meeting rooms - sometimes they are unlocked and empty. Then I can sit with a friend and study and talk and not worry about 'disturbing the peace.' A little too formal for me when other people are around - but on the very off change that rooms are empty, it's like I died and went to rich-man heaven.
