Students have always been asked to sit in the assigned rows. I would say that we have been lax in enforcement and that we are trying to do what we always intended to do. We just thought that we should be doing what we say we do. Marissa Jaffe 01 explained, I got there slightly late and instead of climbing over people, sat one row up on the edge. In response to such complaints, Peard said What you are describing is a snowball effect.
Some people sit in the wrong row, so other people have to sit in the wrong row.
Soon enough, no one feels that they have to sit in the assigned row. You either decide that people sit in the right row or you don t, and we think that they should sit in the right row. The school has counted seats and students carefully, and there is technically room for everyone to sit. The only reason that there were not enough seats in the row was because someone else was sitting in the incorrect row. Ms. LiPuma explained, When a few people do that, then they take the seat of another person, and it s like a domino effect.
