The campus was hit with a snow storm on January 24.
The storm was well announced before the storm even hit so the disappointment that students have in how the campus has decided to take precautions on the weather and the snow is understandable.
Campus was closed on Jan. 26 with the exception of the cafeteria which was opened on weekend hours. Some parts of the campus look like they were taken care of while other parts did not meet those same expectations.
If a student was to walk from the dorms to Jesse Dunn ,the chances of them slipping on ice is high.
The storm that caused the ice and snow did not come by surprise to the people of Oklahoma and if the campus wanted to be open by Jan. 27, as they did, the ice and snow on sidewalks should have been cleared.
It is not only on the sidewalks but in the parking lots as well. Compact parking by Vinson Hall and Jesse Dunn has a pile of snow on it that blocks those who use that parking lot from a safe exit.
Students and faculty that use that parking have to cross into the road beside the parking to get to the steps and enter onto the campus.
This is unsafe and with the construction happening on that road it makes it even busier.
Cunningham hall has a crosswalk for girls in the dorm to cross and join the rest of the campus, this crosswalk has been completely blocked by the snow.
There is not a clear entrance or exit on the crosswalk.
The students would have a better access by just crossing the street instead of using the crosswalk.
The sidewalks around Coronado Cafeteria are clear however most other sidewalks on the campus still have snow and ice built up on them.
It appears that the campus wanted to make sure that students had access to the cafeteria but when it came to other buildings on campus they did not care as much.
Many students have shared the same sentimate on how disappointing that they are in how the snow has been handled.
Courtnie Dennis a junior ag communications major said it felt like the campus just said to push it to the side and let it go.
Students all over campus wondered why the school even opened back up on Tuesday when it was not properly taken care for.
The main areas of campus like around the Student Center, Coronado Cafeteria and the J. W. Martin Library all had clear paths while buildings like Jesse Dunn, Vinson Hall and the dorms had more snow piled on and around them.
