Kunkle Lounge connects the Hammond and Sackett Buildings, near the corner of South Allen Street and College Avenue.  This multiple-story lounge is a popular study and meeting area for students in the College of Engineering.  In fact, while the room is open to everyone during normal business hours, College of Engineering students can get access to the lounge using their student ID card during some weekday evenings.

The features of this lounge are fairly basic: flexible furniture, good lighting, wireless access, and a convenient location.  There is an attendant desk, but the students who work there are mainly on site to answer questions about the College of Engineering and share their own experiences with internships and programs like Study Abroad.

Location: University Park, Old Main and vicinity

Features: Flexible Furniture, Foot Traffic, Natural Lighting, Wireless Internet
