Weather (Review)

Resident Assistants says students are safe from "the elements" in residence halls.

According to Michigan State University Resident Assistant Adam Burns, students are protected against storms and severe weather in the dorms.

"The concrete and steel-reinforced walls are thick enough to protect students from storms...and the stairwells and certain door in the residence halls are fire-proof," Burns said.

RAs are also trained to direct students in tornado safety in the event of a tornado on campus.

"We are told to gather as many or our residents as possible into the hall, with all doors and windows closed, and sit on the floor in tornado-bracing position," Burns said.

As for the secret wish of a snow day, students' only hopes come from an old YouTube video about a previous MSU snow day.
