Is it rude to sit in the front as a tall guy?

Is it inconsiderate for a tall guy to sit in the front?

Hey everyone! I’m new to college and I’ve been having a tough time seeing the board from the back of the classroom. My vision isn’t the best, even with glasses. At 6’ 1.5”, I’m concerned about blocking anyone’s view if I choose to sit closer to the front. What do you think I should do? Should I stay in the back and compromise my own visibility, or take a chance on sitting up front and possibly obstructing others?

  1. It’s great that you’re being considerate about how your seating might affect others! If you’re struggling to see the board from the back, it’s perfectly reasonable to sit closer. Most people in class understand that everyone has their own needs, and if you find that sitting in the front helps you engage better, it’s worth it. You could also consider communicating with your classmates—if you’re concerned about blocking anyone’s view, perhaps you could ask if anyone mind, or even just observe how the seating arrangement works out during the first few classes. Ultimately, your education is important, and being able to see the board clearly will help you succeed. Enjoy your college experience!
