College faculty confront bathroom break abuse. The comments are also entertaining.

Of course, one key issue is whether the students truly have to use the restroom vs. merely using it as a pretext to leave the classroom. Even when the breaks are legitimate, I believe it’s incumbent on the departing student to do so in as unobtrusive a way as possible so as not to disrupt the proceedings, just as one would do so for a movie or a concert.
