Uncertainty principle
Even when they are brand new, elevators in universities all over the world seem not to work properly.
A coincidence?
Maybe it’s because they are programmed for offices and hotels which have different traffic flows.
Or that universities just cheap out and under-spec them.
Students might be practiced in the arts of abuse.
Who knows, maybe there is some darker force at work punishing us visitors silly enough to step foot onto a campus.
One thing I do know, nine times out of ten my university elevator seems to be some sort of padded cell that gives me this weird “get me out of this asylum” feeling.
