Case Western in winter?

Colleges and Universities A-Z Case Western Reserve University

<p>D and family visited CWRU this past Wednesday. University Circle is beautiful and the campus feels much larger than it actually is. It is a rather spread out campus with the dorms being about a 10 min walk from the academic buildings. Not bad on a nice summer day but I was wondering how it is during those snow belt winters? Do they keep things (roads and side walks) well plowed?</p>

<p>My D plays viola and would like to continue playing even though she wants to major in engineering. I believe this is the only University we have visited to have practice rooms in the dorms. I for one was impressed.</p>

<p>They do quite a good job paving, but do be careful walking, as it can get slippery at night!</p>

<p>Weren’t there underground tunnels ? That’s what I remember ,from building to building /</p>

<p>i remember the tunnels downtown–they’re quite extensive, including an enormous Mall. But I can’t remember seeing tunnels on the campus.</p>

<p>Case gets a lot of now, and knows how to deal with it. Maintenance does a really good job at salting and plowing sidewalks – too good of a job, if you ask me (snowplows etc. woke me up at 5am sometimes)</p>

<p>Many buildings on the Quad are interconnected, and you can learn how to avoid stepping outside in between classes.</p>

<p>If you’re talking about the tunnels that the older grad students talk of, then those were locked down around '08, if I’m not mistaken.</p>
