When will the buses start running? These roads are a mess, definitely worse than our last snow. I hope everyone that goes can get there safely.

This is ass! I hope this is just a technicality before they really cancel class. The ice is deep enough to look like snow and the temp tomorrow will be 32*.

2/16/2003 9:54:20 PM

What do we have to lose by playing it safe, honestly?

2/16/2003 10:05:54 PM

this is a bunch of BS. if me or my car got fucked up i'd be very upset. not to mention i can't imagine how some of the wolfline drivers will handle driving in this shit.

2/16/2003 10:16:54 PM

i just watched a guy struggle for about 5 minutes to get 50ft on our street. I won't be risking my car out there with all the bad drivers around here.

2/16/2003 10:17:34 PM

This is gay.

2/16/2003 10:28:34 PM

^^ no no....teh gay

2/16/2003 10:33:15 PM

what makes this all suck even more is the fact that Meredith has cancelled classes all day tomorrow....

2/16/2003 10:58:15 PM

Ahh well adverse weather policy means if you miss class they can't penalize you. I am not gonna risk driving to my 1015 tomorrow.

2/16/2003 11:17:31 PM

how about if you have an exam tomorrow?

2/16/2003 11:31:05 PM

2/16/2003 11:45:53 PM

I'm on campus, and I'll be taking advantage of the Adverse Weather Policy... so should all of you.

2/16/2003 11:57:43 PM
