Deal- "Yea it's cold in the winter, you're not the first person from LA who complains that it's not 70 in December. The tradeoff: snow-days, we had two this year, and let me tell you it's the best thing you'll ever read in an email at 8am when you wake up. The bad part about it is the failure of the university to do even a mediocre job of clearing paths, even on steep hills. Snow gets walked on, gets packed, becomes ice, snow melts, ice remains, and it's sometimes expected of you to take the most circuitous route imaginable if you want to stick to cleared paths. If I ran the school, I'm sure I'd be aware of the thousands of near broke college students who would probably shovel walkways four hours a week for minimum wage. "
