Snow squashes schedules
EDITORIAL
Winter term officially started on Jan. 9,2017 until school
was canceled on the iith due to snow and ice conditions.
This snowstorm continued through the rest of the week
and weekend. Students were finally able to return to
school on the 18th.
Trying to get through the snow and ice maybe stressful
on its own, but missing a week o f school and a number
of deadlines is worse. After going through this crazy
snow attack, welcome back Cougars! Below are some
deadlines that have been extended due to the weather.
The drop course deadline and the deadline to make a
payment is now Jan.27.
“A little bit of a spike, ‘cause the vet
erans were a little bit worried about
their benefits and/or paperwork
going through because of school
closures as well as getting added
or dropped from classes. They were
also concerned about that. The faculty
adjusted for that appropriately”
BIB-— Jay Hernandez, student

“We’re trying to power through this
week since we’re a week behind. For
my Business 205, we had to create
groups and we’re doing this huge
project, so we’re like a week behind so
we’re kind of stuck. But we’re figuring
things out now.”
— Diana Navarro, student
“Well, it was
stressful for
me.”
— Tasha Clark,
bus operator
“It just kind of
threw me off like ev
eryone else, you know?
You just didn’t show up.”
— Ryan Ritter, student
“It affected us very much. In enrollment,
when we came back from the storm, we had Jg|
students lined up for several days in Rog
er Rook hall trying to get their schedules
figured out, ‘cause they had to get instruc
tors consent. A lot of them dropped classes
because they felt they were too far behind. So I
think enrollment is down right now.”
— Donna Ford, Enrollment Services

“Well, it increased our workload. We
have a much larger workload because
were backlogged for a week. So, unfor
tunately, it delayed our processing time,
but we’re able to, therefore, extend the
deadline for students.”
— Travis Swanson, Enrollment Services
“It’s kind of hard getting back
to class, but I’ve only been to one
of my classes so far still. So that’s
kind of tough, knowing what to
do. But for the most part it’s going
smoothly for me.”
— Brittany Kelly, student
“It takes a week out of our curric
ulum, and it was awkward getting
home that Tuesday night, I have to
say?
— Douglas Watson, anatomy and
physiology instructor
