Favourite/worst Lecture Theater and Classroom?

You can only pick 1 of each.

Favourite:
I'd say WLT and BG117.

Worst:
The rooms we had in business were terrible, I think it was in the education buildings (near the muslim altars), and I hated them..
So I'd say EDU, and Undercroft.

Favourite:
ELT (have had so many subjects in this lecture theatre, it's hard not to love)
BG116 - I would have said 117, but BG116 was where I had my first lab class ever at La Trobe!

.. although I really do like the LIMS building! But we'll save that for another day.

Worst:
GS228 (George Singer 228) - I teach a tutorial for 1PE in this room and it's absolutely terrible. Cramped, barely any room to move around and the whiteboard rocks when I write on it.
Undercroft - how hot does that lecture theatre get??!?

Speaking of worst things - worst exam venue = La trobe Melbourne Hall!! I'm one for walking but this venue is ridiculous especially when you have to save your thoughts for the actual exam

Best lecture theatre: ELT
Worst lecture theatre: Undercroft

Best classroom: BG 115. Spiritual home of databases in BG.
Worst classroom: Menzies

Best exam venue: Airport Lounge
Worst exam venue: La Trobe Melbourne Hall (even though statistically I performed best in this venue, it is a fucking dump). Walking??? This place has free parking (never been fine onced for not paying on an exam day).


Interesting that there's a lot of love for BG 117 in this thread. I hated 117. It used to be right next to the admin office so you couldn't muck around.

I also had my first lab in BG 116 but the whiteboard position sucks especially when tutoring. I like to face my class front-on rather than have to awkwardly look left/middle/right all day.

BG 139 and 114 have terrible projectors so they are immediately ruled out.

It's all fine and well if there's spot/s available - the three times i've had an exam there now the carpark has always been full. I really don't fancy arriving at an exam venue an hour before hand just for a car park. Closest is CP3.
