"Commons" is a fitting name for a place for people with something in common

Consider the location of the Commons.  It is centrally located, and ideal for off-campus law students to spend time between class.  It is closer to nearly all law classrooms (not S-106) than any other non-hallway area to study.

I live off-campus.
I don't want to walk home when I have 1-3 hours between class.
I have work to do before my next class.
I have an interest in maintaining a usable, centrally-located space for studying.
I like the idea of having a common area where I can go and be surrounded by substantially boring conversations about evidence, professors, and other law school things.
If I can't find a seat next to someone I know, I want to at least know the person I end up sitting next to isn't going to be having picture-book time or struggling to keep their "OH MYYYY GOD" statements to a reasonable volume.
That excludes you, in case you missed it.
