Stetson students have first use of all study rooms at the Dolly and Homer Hand Law Library and only Stetson students may reserve study rooms. (Occasionally, faculty, staff, or administrators may reserve library study rooms, but such reservations are only allowed when they will not significantly impact the study room availability for Stetson students.)
