Hey everyone, I know that this isn't relevant to a whole lot of you, but regardless of whether or not you go to Lab (or even live in Chicago for that matter) it's ridiculous and not very safe that school has not been cancelled (for Lab students) tomorrow. With temperatures reaching unsafe lows and the risk of frostbite or hypothermia on top of the roads not being very safe, it just doesn't make much sense to risk the health and safety of the student body to go to school tomorrow. Especially for students who don't live in Hyde Park, the commute to school would be really dangerous and icy. It would be amazing if any of you guys wanted to sign this petition to give Lab students and U of C students tomorrow off.
