If you climb the lion tonight, make sure there’s not ice on the pedestal.
Due to the snow that has fallen upon Columbia, CU Public Safety sent out a text that the Morningside evening shuttle service has been suspended. Also, Columbia University Facilities sent out an email saying that the gates near Chapel, Earl Hall, and CEPSR might not be open before 10 am tomorrow morning. Stay warm and safe, Columbia, and send your snow shenanigans to tips@bwog.com.

@He Who Must Not Be Named Since when does snow “fall upon” stuff?
@Anonymous Given the recent obsession with Nate Silver, anyone want to predict the odds of us not having classes tomorrow?
@Anonymous Lol…even if Columbia was thinking of giving us the time off (which i doing they were)…because of the days we missed last week…theyre not going to even thinking of it unless we get the snowstorm of the century….but i wisr they would
@Lee Bollinger I predict 100% odds of you going to class, bitch. If you want a caring community go find it during winter break.
@anonymous between the hurricane and the election i’ve only had 2 days of class over the last two weeks and haven’t gone to either of them. considering just taking the rest of november off.
@behind in my studies So I definitely got excited when I saw the text because I thought classes were being canceled. Oh well…
