Review of Fights at school

Fights at school happen and most people can't help but watch. That is a truth the Megan Haller doesn't try to deny in her piece, Fights at School. In fact she uses an interview with a school police officer to warn fellow students that everyone involved in the fight (even the watchers) can be suspended. Megan Haller uses layered audio that intros the topic of school fighting by combining different people's observations of fights they saw at school. It was really interesting to listen to and got my attention right away. Fights at School is a good piece for a show about issues at school or weird school rules like getting suspended for watching a fight.
