Freshman Cheyenne Aykroid said about the snowfall “It was magical to see the flakes going down the window. By seeing the flakes I’m immediately filled with a fuzzy feeling of the winter’s delight and I am immersed by the different shapes of each flake.”

When asked what he thought about the snowfall, professor of history Robert Long said “I try not to think about it. I hate the cold and I hate the snow. I’ve grown up in both and I’d rather it was just 65 degrees all year long.”
