Not that bad at all. Just if it is icy and traffic would prvent students from coming safety to school. Last year Oct 29th was cancelled. Usually it's based on individual classes.

In my experience it has to be pretty bad in order for the university to close. The roads must be bad enough to prevent safe travel, visibility must also be poor.

Really bad chances. I hear the person that gets to call the snow day is from Alaska.

Sometimes individual classes will have snow days because TA's or professors can't make it but they don't cancel classes campus wide unless we have like 2 ft over night or snow with 15 mph winds or something ridiculous like that.

It has to be catastrophic. Essentially enough for everywhere to close and then some. Last year there were a few terrible storms and they wouldn't call for a snow day.

it has to be pretty bad. first off everyone is already close to campus because it's so compact. but also they do a good job of clearing the roads. i remember 1 snowday last year.

the roads must be considered dangerous that it is not worth students/staff/faculty taking the risk to commute to campus. this does not happen very often, usually it only a delay
