KU's first big snow, the beginning of months of winter weather, left its mark on the campus this week.
The beauty of the freshly fallen snow was short lived, however, as students hustled to and from classes, leaving patterns of boot prints on the white sidewalks. The tracks lead aimlessly across the walks, as if the feet that made them were undirected.
One weary student makes the trek from campus with careful steps, trying to avoid the slick ice and the fate that so many students meet when sure footing is not to be found.
But cold weather has its compensations, such as seen in the forms of stalactite icicles which decorate the roofs of the buildings.
After the long period of warm weather, the snow came as an unwelcome visitor to many students. It marked the beginning of icy streets, car trouble and cold, wet walks to classes. But KU students rallied to the call of winter and indulged in traying, snowball fights and even building a few unstable snowmen. Wrap up fans; it may be a long, cold siege.
