As the polar vortex approaches on Wednesday and Thursday it brings with it temperatures in the single digits with wind chill gusts reaching as high as 22mph, well below zero into the high teens. These temperatures are unsafe for student travel as some are outside for long periods of time. With several school districts and local universities in the area closing down, it only makes sense for the university to follow suit. Hold paramount the safety of your peers by signing this petition to cancel classes on Wednesday and keeps students safe.
