I really enjoyed the class activity where we got to orient ourselves with parts of the campus that we would not generally think of as a "space" that serves as different purposes for different people. For example, there are about 100,000 people that travel through campus every day - each and every single one of those people are going from point A to point B, in a way that they are used to, in a new way; or maybe they have never even been on the campus before.
To me, observing how people interacted with their spaces was very interesting. We are all dependent on each other with the way that we walk on campus: the slower somebody is, the slower we are. There are designated spaces that each person is permitted to be allotted to, such as walking on the sidewalk and biking on the street. If we were to impede on the allowances, we might be reprimanded or in trouble.
Space is ultimately how we interact with our surrounding environment, and how it interacts with us.
