Hi Justin,

It isn't that I don't want to wait my turn. The issue is they do not have a disability and are only using it because they don't want to use the stall next to someone else.  For others, it is their go-to stall just for the heck of it.

There are only 2 ladies rooms, one up-stairs and one down stairs.  There are only 3 stalls in each.  The faculty lounge is off limits for students and therefore is not an option.

Any thoughts?

Aimee
