The Universty of Dayton actually had a snow delay on Wednesday, February 7th. The snow came quickly overnight into the morning, which led to some classes being canceled. It was about 5-inches of soft snow that covered the ground of the Dayton area. This snow was not packing snow, but simply because the students could not build a snowman did not mean they did not play in the snow. With lots of words and tracks across the campus, everyone had some fun. I was disappointed to see that no one was allowed to sled down Stuart Hill, nor have a real sled to slide down any other snowy hills.

This amount can have very different reactions from the students who attend the University of Dayton. Some students, raised in the Chicago-land area, for example, have had to go to high school in way more snow than was seen on Wednesday. But for others such as those from as close as Cincinnati were surprised that the whole day was not canceled.

This particular delay was because of the volume of snow in such a short period of time, but for other schools as close as Wright State University the whole day was canceled. That school is a mainly commuter school so therefore it would make more sense than for the University of Dayton where there is a great student body living on campus.

To celebrate the delay because of snow on the roads, here are some beautiful snowy pictures for your pleasure.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Is there really such a difference in Challah bread or Easter Bread?

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.

Top 10 Reasons My School Rocks!

Why I Chose a Small School Over a Big University.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
