Too hot to think

It wasn’t a great day for taking math exams. I opened up the windows and doors in my classroom at 7 AM to get some cross-ventilation, but when the exam started at 7:35 it was already 83 degrees in my room. By the end of the exam, at 9:45, it was 85 degrees, with a humidity well above 90%. Not a very good environment for learning or for taking exams, is it? Too bad Weston can’t afford air-conditioning.
