To whom it may concern,
I wanted to let you know that last week as i was lecturing in this class
room (1-115), one of the monitors fell and hit on one of the student's
back before landing on the floor. Needless to say that she was in pain.
Luckily, she has no broken bones.
The fact that those monitors are not bolted down is a danger. Students
move the monitors all the time to show their classmates their results
on the screen, and never pay attention to the fact that it can approach
the edge of the table. The danger does not come from the fact that the
monitors can fall, but that when it falls, there are students sitting
underneath it who are going to get hit.
