<p>At some colleges there’s little outside walking that has to be done. At CCM in Cincy, for example, a student can go from dorm to dining to class to practice rooms without ever stepping outside. They designed it that way on purpose. My S’ college, distances are short, walkways are quickly plowed so time spent outside is minimal unless intentional.</p>
<p>Living in Central OH my kids wear something like a North Face fleece all winter, only adding more if intentionally in the snow/cold - snowboarding, sledding.</p>
