This is not safe for the students or faculty and staff here at Truman State! Please at least give a delay! Lives are at stake!

Had to have my dad drive me because my car was covered in so much ice I couldn't get in. We almost slid into several ditches because of the ice. I shouldn't have to come out in this weather when every single school surrounding me cancled. Its dangerous but I feared my grade getting docked a letter grade for missing classes.

I had a test scheduled this morning after walking outside falling immediately I emailed my professor he said we would still be taking the test and I would not be able to make it up if I did not show up. It then took me 30 minutes to get to class to find out he decided to move the test back after telling me I had to come or i would not be able to make up the test. Most professors are like this at Truman some are not, where I am glad the test is moved that should have been the first thing that happened before I felt pressured to have to make the risk to walk 30 minutes skidding on ice to try and make it to the time of the scheduled test.

I’m lucky to have professors with enough common sense to cancel but not everyone has that luxury. We should not have to risk not only our lives, but the lives of others if we drive to campus. One day of class is not worth the extreme risk.

I watched a car not make it up a hill today as I was skating my way to class this morning, because classes were not cancelled....if a car can't make it why should I on my own two feet?

As students, we pay a lot of money to come here and sacrificed a lot to stay at Truman. I feel like Truman neglects it’s students. There should be set rules for inacting snow days. Today should be that day, with a sheet of ice everywhere, it isn’t safe at all for any student or faculty. This makes me questions Truman’s so called concern for students.

The safety of the students should be Truman's ultimate goal. Their actions show that they care more about the material than the students, and that makes me, a Truman student, incredibly sad.
