What makes the Engineering Quad different from any other quad? It's a public space. She wasn't setting up shop inside an engineering building, in which case I would have some empathy for the associate dean. Dove's conduct was childish and inappropriate. An "unwritten" rule? Are you joking? If I went to my professor and said there was an unwritten rule that I should get 50% on a test just for showing up, he'd laugh at me.
