In a recent poll, The Circle Voice found that the most highly rated place on campus was the admissions bathrooms. The technologically advanced bathrooms narrowly beat out the child-themed dungeon beneath the Student Center.

The overwhelmingly positive reception can be attributed to the motion-detecting bathroom light system, which replaces the mundane action of flipping a switch with waving frantically at a motion sensor every half-minute. Some enjoyed the interactive nature of the experience: “Waving my hands over my head, doing jumping jacks, and tossing toilet paper in an attempt to turn on the lights makes the experience fun,” said bathroom enthusiast Zack Webber ’24. Others use the inevitable darkness to focus. Gavin Cronin ’24 told the CV, “When I need to lock in for my Retro Bowl championship game, the pitch black environment helps me to concentrate.”

Nobody, however, enjoys these bathrooms as much as Patrick Keegan ’24. “Whenever I have a moment to spare, I put on my full Batman costume and take a trip to the admissions bathrooms. After about thirty seconds the lights go out, and I become Batman.” Luckily for Patty, and the rest of the student body, Groton has announced that all of the lights in the school will become motion-activated due to the incredible feedback.
