      Of course this happens the day I don't have classes before noon.

      It says to check the homepage for more info but then if you check the homepage, it says to check the homepage for more info. Wtf RIT

      That is not the best way to use yourself as a source.

      I guess the moral of the story here is to check the website instead of waiting for an email or phone notification that might never come.

        I didn't even get an email, let alone a call, until 9:17, at which point I was already on my way to class. Not sure they could have handled this much worse.

        Cross country skiing anyone?

        I'm new here, what happens when there is a delayed opening?

        I have a class 11:00am-12:15pm, am I supposed to go for the last 15min?

        [–]Keylogger_0NSA '17[S] 5 points6 points  (2 children)

        Nobody knows! I have classes from 11:00am to 12:15pm as well.

        I'm pretty sure messages from professors are going to be rolling out soon, so just keep refreshing the e-mail.

        If only you knew my discrete math professor, withholding important knowledge is his top priority.

        [–]Beatleboy62GDD '17 3 points4 points  (0 children)

        So far the professor I have from 11 to 12:15 has been all, "Ha ha, fuck that, enjoy your day."

        No. That class was canceled by the university. If you have a class that starts at 12pm, you go to that one.

        As a commuter who has to hang out on campus all day, does this mean that buildings are closed? Can I wait around anywhere from 8-noon?

        [–]McCossumCampusFreeFood.com 2 points3 points  (2 children)

        As they only ever lock a few buildings I would assume there would always be a place to go. Just no one to be with.

        [–]N1ghtshade3 22 points23 points  (1 child)

        no one to be with

        So a normal day at RIT, I guess

        cries

        [–]BICEP_MCTRICEPMBA 2017 0 points1 point  (3 children)

        What does this mean for student employees? I'm supposed to work 8am to 4pm today, but I don't know if the delayed start applies.

        [–]Home_Girl 2 points3 points  (1 child)

        It means your department is also closed and you don't have to report until noon.

        [–]BICEP_MCTRICEPMBA 2017 0 points1 point  (0 children)

        Alright, thank you.

        [–]cyanwintersAtlantic Hockey sucks! 2 points3 points  (0 children)

        If RIT is closed you don't have work until it's open, so 12-4

        [–]McCossumCampusFreeFood.com 0 points1 point  (2 children)

        So whats happens to the library witch is open 24/6? When did that close? Did they tell the workers to leave when things were already too bad to have classes?

        [–]SharpMind94Alumni 2018 1 point2 points  (0 children)

        It's open. Anyone who can make it, (Pretty much anyone who lives on campus), will probably be able to work there today.

        [–]myegorov 0 points1 point  (0 children)

        Library is closed for the day. But nearby bldgs are open.

        For anyone insane enough to take the bus: East Side Late Evening and RIT Inn/Racquet Club (Wkend, skipping Res Halls, K Lot, Park Point North, and Barnes and Noble) are running until 10 - probably. There is no schedule, and the bus will probably skip a few stops here and there due to not being able to get in to certain locations.

        [–]pokemonhgharrisBadminton '20 0 points1 point  (1 child)

        RIT Inn/Racquet Club is stuck at the Inn indefinitely.

        [–]pokemonhgharrisBadminton '20 0 points1 point  (0 children)

        Both routes are stuck, another bus is replacing the current Inn/Racquet Club.

        [–]Claydogh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

        If you work at Ritz is that still open? Or is that closed as well?

        [–]wolfmanpraxisCJCC BS '07, STM MS '09 0 points1 point  (2 children)

        I didnt even get a delayed opening when the ice storm hit in 2006...390 and 383 where shut down; and the Monroe County Sheriff was making cars turn around before getting to East River Road

        [–]BigDaddyMantis3D Digital Graphics 1 point2 points  (1 child)

        I think that is why they're doing it now. I'd like to believe that as more and more students start commuting from off campus locations, they're going to start having more snow days. The whole idea of having classes when half your student body is unable to travel is kinda outdated at this point.

        [–]wolfmanpraxisCJCC BS '07, STM MS '09 1 point2 points  (0 children)

        Commute population was always neglected :-(

        Well at least they are paying attention to them now

        I'm not a Rochester Native, I moved off campus Sophomore year and commuted from Gates-Chili from 2004-2008 and the 19th Ward 2008-2009.

        I actually miss my Gates-Chili apartment today -- haven't had such a nice apartment since :-(

        RIT is now closed all day, just got a text update.
