In hallways, OTs will march on which side?

The reason OTs march on the right side in hallways is rooted in military tradition and protocol, which establish a standard for movement and spacing in confined areas. Marching on the right helps maintain order and ensures that individuals do not collide while moving in opposite directions. This practice also reinforces the hierarchical structure of military formations, allowing leaders to assert their position and maintain an organized approach to navigation through tight spaces.

This right-side rule is consistent across military branches and is taught early in officer training as part of developing discipline and adherence to established norms. By adhering to this standard, OTs demonstrate their understanding of military etiquette, contributing to a cohesive learning environment.
