    So one of my lectures has been moved to Aula Maxima. What's this like comfort wise? I thought it was only used for graduations...

    When I started 10 years ago it was (apparently) condemned. Until the John Hume building opened they were relying on a stable rate of absenteeism to meet fire regulations. Also there may be a scary ghost.

    Well that's good news because this lecture has about 300 students in it...

    6 years ago I had lectures there, it is kinda dark, atheist students may be subject to spontaneous combustion.

    It's a double lecture as well running from 4-6. This is going to be fun during the winter...

    It vamps between condemned, not condemned, and "only-condemned-in-these-areas-like-this-chandelier-don't-stand-under-that" depending on demand for space.

    Comfort wise, eh, it's basically like being outside. Just prepare as if you were going to have a lecture outdoors.
