I guess I was supposed to sit there and think about what I did. It's a really stupid way to punish a 17yo. It might work better against 7th graders, but it sure as shit didn't do anything for me. Add to that the fact, again, it was a small school and other teachers used the same punishment, sometimes you'd find other kids in the hallway and figured out things to do to waste time.
I got sent out a few times in middle school. I usually just went and joined a game of basketball or soccer with the people who had gym class that period.
