Remember Sit-down Lunch?

Article & Photo: Logan Lee ’23

Starting this year, our school does not have any specific process for lunch. The following photo shows how crowded and long the lunch line is. This makes some students give up on waiting in the lunch line and skip lunch, which indicates the necessity of a specific process for the lunch line before sit-down lunch starts again. Then, what is sit-down lunch? For freshmen, sophomores, and new juniors and seniors who have no idea what sit-down lunch is, allow me to introduce sit-down lunch in this article.
 
To begin, you will receive an email every week from Ms. Nai that shows your table number and the list of people that are sitting at your table for the rest of the week. The lunch starts at 12:15, and there will be two faculty members at most tables. Seniors can get their food first, and then tables will get called in a row [ex. tables 1-12, then tables 13-24]. The waiters of each table will have to go get a tray with the main course. There will be lunch announcements at the end of lunch [ex. club meetings or sports event announcements]. As soon as CDC guidelines deem it safe, Suffield will lose the long lunch lines and sit down family-style again.
