BGTV has changed its viewing venue this year from the classroom to the commons.

Sophomore Catie Schmitt says that she “like[s] BGTV better in the classroom because lunch is the only time she has to eat and talk to her friends.” Katelyn Cambeiro and a few others agreed with this statement. 

Another concern with the lunchroom location is the people that sit outside. BGTV plays inside the lunchroom and those outside cannot see the stream. Ellie Patta says that she “…really want[s] to watch BGTV but there are not enough tables inside to watch it in there.“

A majority of people said that the lunchroom was not dark enough. In the lunch room there are many windows and doors, the blinds are not very effective and let in a lot of light. In the classroom there are less windows and the blinds make it easier to view BGTV.

It seems the general consensus is that viewing BGTV in the classroom is a better viewing experience.
