Guest speaker Andrew Croshaw came to Utah State Wednesday to
talk about the Affordable Care Act. The lecture was held in a classroom in the Agricultural Sciences building and
students were turned away from the lecture after the room filled up.
“I had to do something for work and when I showed up, it was
already full,” said Kelli Reeder, a student at the university. “I wish they
would have had it in a bigger room.”
Reeder said this is not the first time something like this
has happened.
“They brought Jon Schmidt here a couple of years ago and
they had him in the conference enter, the aisles had kids sitting in them and
the walls were packed with people,” Reeder said. “There are way bigger rooms
here, I wish they would have things like this in those rooms."
The event took place in a lecture hall where the chairs are
attached to the desks, making it hard to add more chairs to accommodate more
people.
“Obamacare is something that affects all of us,” said Jashon
Bishop, a student who attended the lecture. “We want students to feel informed
on it.”
Bigger lecture halls on campus include the TSC ballroom, the
conference center, the TSC auditorium and the Spectrum, where LDS leaders
sometimes give lectures.
