The elevator buttons in Harvard's Science Center form a $3 \times 2$ grid of identical buttons, and each button lights up when pressed. One day, a student is in the elevator when all the other lights in the elevator malfunction, so that only the buttons which are lit can be seen, but one cannot see which floors they correspond to. Given that at least one of the buttons is lit, how many distinct arrangements can the student observe? (For example, if only one button is lit, then the student will observe the same arrangement regardless of which button it is.)
