Dang I'm in college right now and in highschool most teachers didn't mind you looking at your phone in class. In college the profs don't even react to people taking calls in class.
In college you're all adults who are there by choice to learn. But also many students are fresh out of highschool so it's a fine line colleges have to walk between respecting ones rights and keeping the student body in order (and not letting the bad decisions of individuals become the reputation of the institution)
Adults can make a decision about if a phone call is important or not, if they need to dip out early or not, etc.
But yeah it's kinda wild the hard shift in responsibility from being a minor to being an adult and ideally there'd be better transition for kids as they cross that threshold
Its annoying when I'm trying to listen to lecture, they should really go outside the room to take calls
Wait they're talking on the phone in the classroom during a lecture? That's messed up. I can't say I've encountered that either of the times I've gone to college.
Maybe you could pull the individual aside after a class that they've disrupted and ask them nicely to step out of they get an important call? Then of course if that doesn't help you could escalate by speaking with the instructor about your concern
