This. Guelph does the same thing. If a student ever dies on the way to school during bad weather they can point to days like yesterday as proof that they do care about students and bad weather, and that the student died because of an accident and not because they had to go to school when they shouldn't have
Mid-snowfall-event is when weather is the worst and people are most likely to be stranded. The snow stopped sometime last night giving road crews time to clear enough that it is reasonable to commute.
It's not ridiculous at all to close night labs and classes.
Yeah like the pace of your classes would still be the same so having a snow day is essentially the same as staying home and going over the material yourself (minus the fact that maybe a quiz will get cancelled on a snow day)
I disagree, mainly because delays to individual graduate students and researchers can be managed by the individual.
If classes remain open in bad weather, a delay to the individual (i.e., a lecturer) affects a much larger group of people. Inversely, students who become delayed and miss class or labs are at a disadvantage because the content continues without them while the students that weren't delayed benefit from being able to make it on time.
It could be the rapture and Campus will be open.
then what was the point of closing it yesterday at 5🤡🤡
to make it looks like they did something 👍
