A Teaching Case on Meeting Attendance in a Four-Storey Building
A paper from the School of Emergent Priorities presents a single building's fourteen-week door-clipboard record of 486 booked meetings as a teaching case, finding that invitees to meetings on the third level, two flights above the entrance, attended at about seven-tenths the ground-floor rate, and that a take-the-stairs sign changed the figure by 0.4 percentage points (n.s.). The University has since reduced the quorum of any meeting held above the second flight to seven-tenths of its nominal figure, in every building and with no ordinary override.
