What kind of college doesn't allow students to leave for lunch? Lord.
- ploxiln 8mo agoHigh school ... 20+ years ago probably
- JCattheATM 8mo agoThat's fine...never heard high school grounds referred to as a campus before so assumed college.

- jhbadger 8mo agoThis is fairly common in warmer climes in the US like California. Rather than have a monolithic high school building with lots of wasted space for hallways they will have a bunch of smaller buildings that students go between outside. They are "campuses" in the same sense that various tech companies call their cluster of buildings a "campus".
- seanmcdirmid 8mo agoI remember watching a TV show set in socal (Beverly Hills 90210 maybe?) in the late 80s I think? And them having high schools and even lockers outdoors just blew my mind.
- Conan_Kudo 8mo agoThe climate makes it work. I wish it was like that for my high school, but alas we just had the stifling building.
