THE COMMUTER EXPRESS

Hello commuters! 

As we approach the final weeks of the semester we want to wish you the best of luck on finals and a relaxing Winter Break!

If you have a locker in the Commuter Center, 2045 Armstrong, please either clean out your locker in the Commuter Center by Thursday, December 13th OR  sign up in the Center to reserve your locker for the Spring semester.

Contents of lockers that aren't either cleaned out or reserved will be removed.  

1.Make sure to check your email every morning before you head out for class to check if any professors canceled class. It’s helpful to mention to your professor that you are a commuter and you would appreciate if they could email you when they plan to cancel a class ahead of time.

2.Make sure your car is prepared for the winter weather before you drive. Ensure you have good tires, traction, and brakes. Pack an extra blanket/coat in your car just in case you break down in the cold. A scraper and a brush is helpful to keep in the side door in case it continues to snow through the day.

3.Head out early to leave time for slow driving. Make sure you scrape ice and snow off all windows before driving. If your key hole tends to freeze over, do NOT use hot water as this will only make things worse. Instead, invest in a can of lock de-icer which can be found at Walmart for about $3. Always break early and slowly when driving in the snow. Also, remember that bridge surfaces, shadows, and low spots where water can collect will be the first areas to freeze.

*Overall, be decisive and consider safety first when deciding whether or not to drive in winter weather.
