It was OK, I drove very slowly. The road commission had been waiting for the storm front to arrive for a couple of days and were prepared this morning. The city tries to keep the major roads scraped and salted as much as possible, with one salt truck used solely for the campus area. The University also has some of its own snow equipment. Towles said he often gets angry calls from commuters when the roads get bad.
Some students plan to take advantage of the snowfall by participating in winter activities.
I'm already a little wet from stomping through the puddles. The University doesn't have an official policy on what to do during snow emergencies. In the unlikely event that the school would close it would be a joint decision made by three University officials. There is not a written policy, persay. Many students were excited when they saw the campus was blanketed in snow.
