The Cynical One:
Administration at Hillsdale College better pull their heads out long enough to see that tomorrow's wind chills might jeopardize their precious students if they don't bloody well cancel classes. (takes face, applies to desk)
Walking to the sports center at 7:45 tomorrow with a wind chill of -20 is going to be fun. The fact that someone trolled campus to say that classes were canceled just makes it worse.
The One with the Pointed Questions:
The Michigan College of Beauty is closed tomorrow and Hillsdale College is not... why...
The Optimistic One:
I refuse to go to sleep until I receive the official notification that tomorrow's classes are cancelled.
The Cold Humored One:

The Kind of Mean One:
All I've seen for 3 days are posts from Hillsdale students complaining about the frigid temperatures. Don't give up hope, my friends. It should start to warm up a bit by the beginning of May.
The Snarky One:
I can't wait to tell my southern children about how I walked through blizzards and knee-deep snow to get to class.
The Literary One:
"For it is bitter cold and I am sick at heart." Hamlet
We always seem to read the most cheery literature in winter.

The Practical One:
PSA for my Hillsdale friends:
"It gets so cold out of nowhere. We don't know the weather, when it's gonna blizzard, or cold temperatures, in the arctic . . .
You have to be active when you're on the land. You have to move around a lot. You have to make your blood flow when you're, when you're cold. You can jump and down, or run around, or wrestle with your friend."
I recommend you watch this entire video.

The One who can Always See the Sunny Side:
The Academic One:
I hereby move that for tomorrow's forum we change the reading to C.S. Lewis's slightly more obscure but infinitely more appropriate essay "Learning in Wintertime."
And of course, there's always this guy:
I really hope they don't cancel classes tomorrow. That would be highly inconvenient.
