Do you like where you sit?
Happy new quarter!
That means a new seating chart!
You may apply for a seat in this class (meaning you may request
where you would like to sit).
Your application must be a short expository essay explaining to me
why the seat you chose is the best. This is not argumentative so you
should not be trying to convince me!
You must pick at least one seat (a seating chart with the desks
numbered will be on the next slide). If you have multiple options
make it clear which is your first choice, second, etc.
