If students needed a left-handed desk, he or she would just move a [lefty] desk from one classroom to another.

Percentage-wise, it’s not that much. We’ve always been lucky to keep it under 3 percent.

It would take years to rehabilitate all of the large lecture classes. We simply do not have the funding from the government.

We hesitated to do it last year, but finally decided we need to.

It seems there are never enough [left-handed] desks. I have worked here for 30 years and the shortage of left-handed desks has not been a problem before.
