I thought this would be a fun mid-week share. For those of
you who do not live in California, I am not purposely trying to rub it in (too much),
but this is not an issue CA campuses normally have to deal with.
“The 10 Snowiest
College Campuses (Sort of)”
“With a blizzard sweeping the East, AccuWeather.com released
a list of the "10 snowiest colleges in the U.S.," and loyal
alumni of those institutions started boasting about the rankings. We couldn't
help but ask some questions about the methodology when we noticed the Syracuse
University was listed as tied for second, while the State University of New
York Upstate Medical University (literally across the street) didn't make the
list. And it didn't make sense that the University of Rochester could be third
on the list but its neighbors, such as Monroe Community College and Rochester
Institute of Technology, could have so much less snow so as not to make the
list at all. AccuWeather responded that it "could not include all the
colleges in the surrounding areas without being repetitive in the same
region," so "we choose those colleges that we believed the most
people would know."”
“So with that rather large caveat, here is the top 10 list,
followed by typical annual inches of snowfall:”
1. Michigan Technological University: 200
2. Syracuse University and SUNY Oswego: 124
3. University of Rochester: 99
4. State University of New York at Buffalo: 94
5. University of Minnesota at Duluth: 86
6. University of Vermont: 81
7. Southern New Hampshire University: 69
8. Western Michigan University: 67
9. Cornell University: 65
10. University of Alaska at Fairbanks: 62
Students in the snow,
you can do it!
