The article presents views of the author on chair awareness among teachers. In my childhood I did not notice what teachers sat on. I was unaware of chair discrimination. No one spoke of it in my presence and local papers said nothing against it. My mother was a teacher, but, brought up in a different era, she never question it. When I began teaching in a junior high school, I accepted the plain, straight-back wooden chair at the desk in my classroom as my lot in life. I regretted its tendency to snag my nylons, but, in a cheerful spirit of resignation, I covered chair's splinters with masking tape and taught English and history from it every day.
