Standing Stations in back of classroroms
McMaster has a reputation for excellence in health science education and we all know of the new studies that show the poor health outcomes from sitting for several hours a day and yet, the professors teach 3-4 hour lectures with only one break and there are no standing stations. Standing stations would help increase mobility, blood flow, attention and decrease blood stasis, back and leg pain.

This idea has been referred to the Campus Classroom Committee chaired by Facility Services for inclusion in building or renovating teaching and learning spaces across the University.
