Carleton Commons, formerly Carleton Lounge and the adjoining Carleton Cafeteria, is a common space located on the campus level of Mudd. Opened early in the Fall 2016 semester, the space features open and private student study areas, and is accessible from a shiny sliding automatic door (the only one on campus!) at Mudd's 4th floor entrance.
The lounge consists of a bunch of colorful plastic tables and chairs, scattered across a fairly large room. If you can get past the faint smell of unwashed CS boy, it's one of the few places you can study with friends where people won't aggressively shush you. It also features a few window booths, which, if you are lucky enough to snag, provide a comforting semi-private space while you study.
Next to the large main room is also a smaller "quiet" room, behind a pane of glass. This room features stainless steel furniture (for some reason?) and tables that are too short to be standing desks but too tall to comfortably sit at. Oh, and they clang when you do anything beyond gently touching them, so expect a lot of dirty looks. This small room is confusing in form and function, but students who adamantly refuse to just go to Butler always end up using it.
Connected to the lounge is a Blue Java, which conveniently fuels engineering students who have no will to live beyond a red velvet muffin.
