Closing continued from p.1
CLASSES AND CLINICS at the University of Kansas Medical Center were not closed yesterday.
Jim Mathes, a facilities operations spokesman, said snow and ice removal crews came in Sunday afternoon and worked into the evening to clear roads and sidewalks.
"Some of those guys worked 10 hours
(Sunday), but the bulk of them worked five or
eight."
Mathes said 28 sanding and landscaping crew members started at 5 a.m. yesterday clearing snow and ice off the sidewalks and streets. An additional 16 workers from other facilities operations crews joined them later in the day to help with the clearing.
Mathes said facilities operations was
operating under its least severe weather plan for clearing snow. Bus routes, Jayhawk Boulevard, parking lots, handicapped zones were sanded and the areas were salted, sanded or chipped by workers.
HE SAID WORKERS would start clearing debris early today to make sure that classes weren't canceled again.
"Some of them will be coming in in the early morning to sand the slick spots before the sun sets."
Early yesterday morning, the information center was swamped with calls from students, faculty and staff interested in class and campus activity closings, said the coordinator of the University information center.
Pat Kehde, the coordinator, said the information center received about 2,000 calls between 6 a.m. and noon, with more than 600 calls between 7 a.m. and 8 a.m.
Kehde said most of the callers were concerned about whether classes and night exams had been canceled and what buildings were open.
Finance continued from p. 1
"We've had lots of people call us about whether a Business 240 exam had been passed."
THE EXAM HAS been postponed until Feb. 18, she said.
Kehde said all campus offices and most buildings were open. Some libraries were closed, but Watson Library opened at 10:45 a.m.
We have reduced spending in several areas, such as wire photos and traveling.

Campus buses may have taken the day off yesterday, but not students.
Gwen Tombersberg, Davenport, Iowa,
and scaled Watson Library is a step to study.
Throughout the day, snow blowers, snowplows and sure-footed students, bundled from头-to-头, cruised Jay Boulevard where buses feared to tread.
"This weekend was my birthday," she said. "I was happy that school was canceled because I needed some extra time to sleep and study."
The Kansas Union was another hangout for snowbound students. Some studied while others watched soap operas. But Scott Sutherland, Wilmette, Ill., senior, was there because he didn't know classes had been canceled.
"I was kind of sleepy when I left for class so I didn't realize school was canceled," he said. "But I didn't mind because I wasn't prepared."
One student said he wasn't' prepared for Kansas winters.
"I hate this bloody snow," said Abdelrahman Sabouli, Sudan graduate student. "I can't think anymore. I have go to college. I don't want to study in America."
Sabuil raised a pant leg to reveal stripped pajama bottoms and two layers of turtleneck.
"I have never worn so many layers of clothes in my life," he said.
"And look at these," he said as he pointed to his snow boots with disgust. "I am used to wearing sandals."
Other students spent their snow day relaxing in the Wagon Wheel Cafe, 507 W. 14th Street, rather than on the slopes.
"I was very relieved school was canceled," said Larry Smithback, building and grounds employee. "I'm going to hang around here with these girls."
His drinking partners said they were pleased because their accounting examiners felt that he was a
"We had a Business 240 test tonight," and Ann Keeler, Overland Park sophomore, said.
