I’ve heard “dinghy” for out of state people who don’t know how to handle a rotary and just follow the tail of someone else to get through, like dinghies following a larger boat.

McCormick had a penthouse lounge? That’s pretty awesome. I’m a dude and never saw more than the entryway, I was postering for MITERS once and they wouldn’t even let me past the entryway to put it up on the bulletin board. I left it at the front desk and crossed my fingers that someone remembered to put it up either when the desk worker finished their shift or asked someone else to put it up.

When I was there I would cycle through Athena clusters (in my time they were debathena machines and very few people used them), the various libraries (excellent study spaces, especially Barker and Hayden), occasionally rooms in the student center, literally any classroom that didn’t have a locked door (ever done a pset together on a bunch of blackboards? It’s an excellent way to work together), and anywhere you have special access to through UROPs or anything like that if you’re looking for places particularly quiet.
Off campus, the central branch of the Cambridge Public Library or probably most other public libraries (particularly any recently renovated ones)

So what I’m hearing is, avoid names that have “fika” in them unless you’ve come up with the greatest multilingual pun of all time
