    It is nice and spacious. Decorated with plants and pictures to my liking. I have a great waiting area for students in front of my office.  
    Selected:
    If only parking was enforced in the handicapped area and fire lanes; never has been for the 10 years I've been here. VERY FRUSTRATING when able-bodied folks park there. Unfortunately it appears it's going to take a tragedy to get this enforced.
    Selected:
    Window that opens. Not all of my file cabinets fit into my cubicle.
