It's open letter time!
Feb. 27th, 2007 01:21 pmDear University of Utah,
While I appreciate the snow day, I'd like to point out that I leave for the bus at 8:30 in the morning. I'm also not the only person that gets in this early; many come from much farther away than I do. By noon, the snow had stopped, and I can only assume the roads will get better as the day goes on. As such, closing at noon doesn't in fact protect anyone from the snow, it just makes us feel like we wasted a trip. Please close at 8 next time.
Dear Utah Transit Authority,
You people are crazy. While I admit surprise that the busses were running at all, when it gets too snowy to drive the last three blocks up to the hospital, I don't think the best thing to do is make people get out and walk those three blocks in the snow.
