Oh, the weather outside is frightful, and the idea of going to class looks less and less delightful. With a high of only 31 degrees, Monday was the first day students had to bundle up for the walk across campus to classes.
Youngstown State University sophomore, Shamarian Coleman said, "It's a little too cold." While she didn't break out the gloves and scarves just yet, she said that once spring semester starts she will.
YSU students not only use the traditional methods of hats, scarves and gloves to stay warm, but many cut through other campus buildings to keep warm. Coleman said, "I try to walk through buildings more."
Graduate student Mike Calzo said that the change in temperature will get worse as winter quickly approaches, so Monday wasn't too cold. He said, "It's annoying, but it's do-able right now."
Richard Black, YSU junior, said that the cold is bearable right now. He said, "Its not necessarily cold yet. I don't mind it. Now in February, it will be cold."
YSU senior Johnise Wilkins is prepared everyday for the cold weather. She said she prepares by bringing a coat everyday. Pointing to her track outfit and winter coat, Wilkins said, "I'm okay. This is what I wear. I bring a coat with me, but I'm okay."
With temperatures expected to stay in the same range as Monday for the rest of the week, the outlook for students walking around campus looks bleak.
