10 Student Desks

Page 15 text:

Actually, boohs arc easy to control as long as the teacher doesn 't de- mand they are opend. In addition to neat storage, the books make a good arm rest. Turn too fast in a desk and you 're down to one kidney. Students Stand and Be Counted, It's More Comfortable A question nagging at the minds of all students is. Are the desks current- ly being used in class- rooms designed for hu- man beings, or are they actually impliments of tor- ture carefully designed by demented administrative minds? The 2 1 2 foot structure can be found in most classrooms with a student locked in its unforgiving embrace. Hours students endure these desks. Add to this the misery of class- room lectures and con- centration becomes impossible. Ho one is the right size for these average'' desks. Who did they take an average of? Which stu- dents? Has it been in the last 100 years? Do design- ers know how tall students today are? While on the subject of design, who designed the work space ? Every stu- dent in the school has tried to balance a book, paper, and pencil on this two foot space. If the book is open, which most teach- ers prefer, where do you put the paper? So if you get your book and paper organized, where do you rest your arm to write neatly and legibly ? The life of a common student is hard. Where do you put size 12 feet under a desk, not to mention the legs that came attached to them? The student in front doesn't want your feet un- der his her desk, and the teacher won't let you put your feet in the aisle. How do you survive always be- ing wrong because your parents gave you big genes. Maybe that's why schools are called the seat of learning, a stu- dent has to spend so much time in one. It is time for students to pro- test this writhing agony and stand up for the rights of their behinds. At least the area standing fits a normal human body. Buford Shumaker Student Desks 11
