Back for me because I have a pretty disgusted, annoyed resting face. If I sit too close I’m focusing too much on keeping a pleasant listening face that I don’t pay enough attention to the material and give myself a tension headache.

Haha! I’m the EXACT same way. I’m glad I’m not alone. I feel for you!

our uni had mandatory chemistry for all engineering degrees, even industrial economics and computer engineering, so naturally a lot of people had to re-take it. the registrations weren’t done processing for weeks, and during that time you had to assume you were in, or you’d be hopelessly behind. that lecture hall was filled to the brim the first few weeks every semester. people were sitting in the aisles, on the stairs, in the window sills, two to a chair… it was insanity. i really hope they fixed that.

What a shit.
I just tried to get to the front, even beeing 20 min late.
I had to update my glasses while in university for each semester.
So I would sit at any of these seats. When friends reserved one seat in the back, I would take it but tell them that next time I have to sit in the front.
In my country students aren’t judging people at such minor interactions.

Again, lemmy: Some piece of shut-your-mouth is downvoting me without a reply.
To this individual: You are hurting this community very much.

Complaining about downvotes, that’s a paddlin
- 7dev7random7 ( @7dev7random7@suppo.fi ) English1•4 hours ago
Yeah, because I am able to revert false opinions of mine, but lemmy has a tendency to downvote without teaching me. Opening up about my experiences is punished by downvotes without elaboration.
That sucks so hard.

For conferences, there’s the ones who stand at the very back so they can easily leave if the talk is uninteresting/boring.
Listen, don’t judge us.

@fossilesque Don’t forget those of us in the back row because we slept in and got there late!

Nah the side rows are for when you expect the lecture to be boring or unproductive and you want to leave early.

Had three classes (5 hours) back to back in the same room one semester. I ended up switching seats to break up the monotony. I started at nerd and slowly progressed to the back for sleep.

I wonder why universities classrooms are designed more like movie theatres?

There was a time when professors performed burlesque shows to better teach their subject. The puritans got them though. ;-;

Yeah, I’m a second-row person all the way; green describes me right. Purple as a backup.
Thank goodness my college only had one of these kinds of rooms, and I was only there for a class about movies.
