We had a discussion about whether people would be okay with writing their confessions and then having to pin them up in front of everyone. It might make people feel a little bit awkward, and that they couldn't actually write what they actually wanted to incase people saw and knew that it was theirs.
We have had this discussion earlier, and resolved it with the Confession Garden - having little nooks and crannies for people to roll up their confession and hide it. But somewhere along the process of developing the idea to a laundry/washing line, these thoughts got lost in translation.
So today Charlotte set up a couple of stations around the campus to test whether people were more inclined to post confessions if they didn't know that they had to put up their confession on the line.
I went back to the stations after 4 or so hours of them being set up, and it seemed as though the station without the line had more hits, but there could also be other factors - traffic flow etc.

So tomorrow, we are going to swap the stations over, to see if it's just a matter of the amount of people walking through the different buildings or not.
