The University of Wisconsin enacted a Snow Action Day on Tuesday. School officials didn’t cancel classes on Tuesday, but they encouraged students, staff and faculty to use caution.
Officials said that those driving to campus were encouraged to park in cleared parking areas where possible, and commuters were also encouraged to leave their cars at home and ride the bus to campus.
“The new snow emergency program has making a lot of good changes because last year was just horrible,” said University of Wisconsin-Madison student Aaron Stransky. “Not enough attention was paid to the sidewalks so it was really, really difficult to walk around.”
