freezer burn

So I was walking to my AP Mod and African classroom today, and Garrett comes up to me and goes, "a window just shattered in my classroom." It just so happened that it was my classroom. I need to explain.

This room, ever since the beginning of school, has been the coldest room in the entire school. Whenever we come back to school the school always has the air conditioning up too high, and this year was no exception. This year, however, the second floor of the new building is extra cold. My African teacher actually told us the first day of school to bring a sweatshirt for that class, because it is so amazingly cold.

When I walked into Mod, the temperature was actually a little bit better, up to around 45 degrees. The custodian was in the room putting a board up on the window. Apparently, and get this, the temperature difference between the outside and the inside of the room was so great, that the window completely shattered.

I literally walk out of that room shaking with my teeth chattering every single day. I don't understand why the school cannot just change the temperature of the automatic thing up a few degrees. I know that they want to keep it nice and regulated for us, but what is wrong with opening the windows and letting the amazing weather we have been having take care of it?
