By: Anika Isom, Editor in Chief As students walked into their classes last Monday morning, the climate shock froze some and thawed others. Classes on the second floor seem to bear the brunt of the heat, while those on the main floor remain relatively stable. But what gives for this change? The answer lies in who controls the thermostat. Students desperately punching at the thermostats in the halls will be saddened to learn that they cannot actually affect the temperature of the school. Only a select few have the ability to control the climate of Logan High. But who are they? This reporter heads to the frontlines of the battlefield- Mr. Soffe’s room. The room has registered at a whopping 85 degrees Fahrenheit, and the trend seems to be climbing. Soffe recalls his desperate email to the head custodian, Paul Gutke. “Am I in the seventh degree of Hell?” He wonders. “Have I died and not even realized it?... please send help”. Soffe’s sarcastic email reflects the opinion of many of the students- the classes are far too hot for learning. The only hope seems to rest in the hands of the higher ups, who hopefully will respond to the desperate cries of both students and teachers. Yet not all classes are equal in this war of temperature. Others, like the room of the journalism teacher Randy Cluff, have proven to be chilling. As I type this, my brittle fingers weakly pound the keys, chilled to the bone. Think I’m being sarcastic? Maybe a little. But the temperature shock as you make the switch from Soffe’s to Cluff’s room certainly has me shook. But students need not despair for long- certainly the administration will do something after receiving the barrage of emails from teachers. All we can do now is wait.
