Show Be Courteous Allow Other People to Pass by on Campus Dear Editor I have visited many college campuses while I have been attending but this campus is unique in one respect I hate to dwell on the negative in any case but I really really really real real- ly must speak out about about- the juvenile practice of hall blocking Whole classes will sit outside a classroom with legs extended leaving a foot 4 corridor for for- both lanes of traffic Or there is the ever popular circle of jerks which consists of a group of people standing in a circle in the hall on the stairs in front of the elevators Not only is this inconsiderate it is illegal The ability to move about freely in public is isone isone isone one of the basic tenants of the constitution My girlfriend Angie had a stroke when she was 15 that left her partially paralyzed Each day she takes a bus to the U of U and attends 17 credit hours of school Rarely does she have any problems getting around She came back to to visit recently While walking on the quad she was forced down a small opening by two circles of jerks on the sidewalk and was run over by a woman who works for Jor the College Exclaiming ning why dont don't you look where you are going the woman sped off without even checking to see if Angie was alright Luckily she w was s. s We are getting to be a big school in terms of the amount of people that circulate through each day If you really need to hold holda a conversation step off to the sid side Look out for physically challenged people they cant can't always get out of your way Above all lets let's try to treat this like a campus campus campus cam cam- pus of adult education on and give everyone the respect and consideration they deserve Ricky Steed electronics electron ics |
