Op-ed: More classes should engage with nature

A lot of my classes are, quite frankly, hard to get through. While sometimes it’s because I am not interested in the subject or because the lecturer has a voice that lulls me to sleep, it’s often the quality of the classroom itself that determines how much I like each class. Many of my classes have taken place in small, dark basements, and, of those, only a few have windows. As I sit there, minutes start to feel like hours and I cannot wait until the clock changes to finally go home.
