Happening in the World: On Wednesday, the Senate confirmed Sen. Jeff Sessions to the position of Attorney General. The vote was close, and though all but one Democrat voted against him, all Republicans voted for his successful confirmation. (Washington Post)

Happening in New York City: All public schools in New York City have been closed due to the impending blizzard due to hit after an unusually warm day on Wednesday. And after majorly playing us, Columbia is closed as well! (New York Daily News)

Happening on Campus: Celebrate your class cancellations by heading to Low and throwing icy water at your friends at Bwog’s snowball fight! We’ll all act like five-year-olds and pretend our homework doesn’t exist – it’ll be completely unlike a normal day at Columbia.

Overheard: “I thought vowels were just in verbs!”

Song Recommendation: Broadway’s hottest new hit musical “Dear Evan Hansen” just released their cast album! Enjoy “Waving Through a Window” from the comfort of your room tomorrow as you bemoan your lack of a snow day.
