BU won’t give a snow day tomorrow and people are pissed

What the hell BU?

It’s snowed. A lot. The past few days have been snow-filled messes, and we are expected to get more snow for tomorrow. The mayor declared that Boston Public Schools will be closed tomorrow due to safety concerns for Boston citizens.

Well, BU decided against a snow day. And students just aren’t having it.

@BU_Tweets You have commuters, disabled students, and professors who have to get to campus. I ask that you reconsider.

Even the Student Government has a document for people to send in their concerns.

Within two hours of sharing the document, over 800 responses were recorded. Student Government is now sending the document to the administration.

There’s even a group who created an event tomorrow to protest the decision to not have a snow day.

One student decided to trick others into thinking BU changed its mind (they didn’t).

Well BU, look what you’ve done. You’ve upset the children. Maybe reconsider your decision?
