Flu season is almost upon us and it’s coming up just as we’re leaving mysterious-illness-that-we-all-pretended-was-not-covid season; I know we’re all looking for an empty spot on campus where you can feel free to open-mouth cough between lectures! For all those tickles in your throat that you hold in awkwardly for an hour, here are the best spots to let it all out:
- The Basement Bathroom of St. Paul’s Chapel
- Great ambiance down there, and the acoustics…truly can’t be beat!
- That Weird Little Platform between Floors 4 and 5 of Lerner Ramps
- I’m pretty sure that thing exists outside of the space-time continuum, so any germs will probably be sucked into the void. Win!
- An 8:40 that Doesn’t Take Attendance
- The only person you’ll be at risk of infecting is the professor (and maybe a grad student if they show up).
- Anywhere in Kent
- Genuinely can’t figure out if this building is closed or not, so you’re probably all good.
- Right Behind My Head in a 175 Person Lecture
- No worries! It’s actually totally cool that you still came to class today without a mask and chose to sit right behind me. There are like a million open seats not in my vicinity, truly love your enthusiasm for learning!
Happy Hacking!
