It's usually a ventilation duct aimed at your head and blowing cold air at you the whole day. Temperature could be around 70 degrees but it gets chilly when it is blowing at you all the time.
That seems like poor design, proper ventilation shouldn’t be directly aimed at any humans. But 70 degrees seems like a very standard temperature for indoors, I wouldn’t consider that cold.
"very standard" is debatable - in my country there's a law limiting AC in public spaces to 27°C (with a 2 degree tolerance, so really 25°C). 70 °F would be regarded by nearly everybody as too cold
