LOCK UP–lack of restroom accessibility frustrates students

Unfortunately I am recently noticing there are these big blue gates which have been placed in front of the bathrooms in the commons. It really has been frustrating for students when they walk all the way to the restroom and see the big gate and have to go to the other side of the commons to go to the bathroom.

I believe the most enraging part is when one of the restrooms are closed down more so the Bear Necessities one because that means many girls are trying to pile in the small library bathroom and will have to wait until almost the end of the passing period to finally get a stall.

It’s very understandable why they are trying to regulate the bathroom system so kids won’t be making bad decisions during their education time. But I feel there is possibly a better way to do this. Or honestly it would be better to close down the library restrooms the majority of the time since our Bear Necessities bathroom is bigger and has more stalls for girls to be using the restrooms and will get them out quicker.
