Snow plans are developed and tailored to each individual snow and ice event. Despite an ambitious effort for each storm, customers might encounter slippery conditions on campus. During the winter time please exercise good judgment and caution when traversing the campus. General Snow Priorities and Order of Cleaning  Shuffle your feet rather than picking them up and putting them down. You are much less likely to slip.  Wear appropriate footwear  Understand that slippery conditions can last well after the end of the storm. Remain cautious!  Keep a portable shovel, cat litter or salt, and battery cables in your vehicle.  Avoid snow removal equipment. Visibility is limited and operators may not see you!  Avoid trying to move your vehicle until the snow event ends. Roads may not be passable.
