- Looking out the window to see it has snowed 6 inches in approx. 13 minutes.
- When the high for the day sits around -20 degrees.
- Realizing that professors really expect us to come to lecture.
- Reading emails and warnings that describe the dangers of the cold. You know, frostbite, pneumonia, death…
- Briefly considering transferring to a school in Florida or Alabama…
- Getting together all your warmest clothes.
- Realizing you left your best snow boots at home over break…
- Trying to figure out the shortest path to class.
- Saying goodbye to your best friend before she ventures off into the cold, desolate world.
- Cursing whoever thought the Engineering Hall would be “close enough” to the rest of campus.
- Trying not to embarrass yourself slipping on the ice-coated sidewalks.
- Coming together as a student body to whine incessantly, even though we deal with the cold and snow every year.
Stay warm, fellow Badgers. We will endure.
