For those of us who suffer from IBS and UTS (Upset Tummy Syndrome), knowing where the best, cleanest, and most private bathrooms are is always a necessity that can make life go by a little smoother (if you know what I mean *exaggerated wink*). In fact, the first thing I do when I go anywhere is request the floor plans of the building and assess the fastest routes to every bathroom on the map.
Now, with COVID-19 on the rise, finding a CLEAN and less-crowded bathroom is evermore pressing for the average student.
I took the liberty of assessing the University’s bathrooms and developing a ranking system to determine which are the best for these troubling times. Before I begin, I am required by journalistic law to state that I am an incredibly biased and unreliable source. As a result, my information is based only on women’s bathrooms in buildings that I’m frequently in (which aren’t the buildings anyone else is in, ever).
Anyway, here’s the article, formatted how my little humanities brain imagines a lab report would be.
*Note: not to scale, unitless
