    Wow! How do you handle that type of weather? Obviously, this doesn't happen OFTEN in Ohio, even in mid-Ohio. Cleveland, yes, but not in Columbus. I have two classes today that I will be going to, because they are closer to where I live off campus. I am wondering about my night class at 6:30-8:30PM, who knows if it will be on or not. It is supposed to be -4 degrees tonight.

    When I was at Cincinnati, a common thing in this type of weather was to cancel classes begining before 10 am or after 6pm.

    What made me mad was the first time this happened, I had a class scheduled from 9:30-11am that we were expected to arrive at 10 am for...To me when the wording was classes that begin before 10 am doesn't mean show up a 1/2 hr late. If the prof. wanted it that way, he should have made his expectations clear before hand, rather then punish those who did not come to class that day. Oh well, I passed the class (D is for Diploma!) and graduated, so I guess it doesn't matter now!

    Being Cincinnati, there are hills everywhere! We lived in a house off-campus that was just up a the street, but literally on the other side of a small hill. So yes, I had to walk up hill to school both ways, in 18in of snow!!

    It was -7 here in Canal Fulton when I woke up this morning. I've been freezing for days.

    I was at RPI (Troy, NY) in 1979-1980, one of the coldest winters in recent memory. I lived in a dorm quite far from campus, and don't remember classes ever being cancelled due to cold weather. All the students looked like the little kids in the snowsuits with the arms sticking straight out!
