With spring slowly
approaching, Bucks students
take heart in knowing that they
will no longer have to deal
with the obstacles that the winter
months brought this season.
Sick of winter, Kasey
Woodward, 18, a science major
from Newtown, does not enjoy
going to school in the cold
weather as there is a lot of
walking between parking lots
and classes. "It's not like high
school, when you ride a bus
and get dropped off at the
door," she said. "I cannot wait
to go outside without being
cold and drive around with my
windows down."
The snow did not affect Jon
Curley's commute to school
too much; he only has Tuesday
and Thursday classes. Curley,
25, a business administration
major from Yardley is sick of
the snow because he could not
hang out with friends.
Laughing, he stated, "I was
stuck-in and was going crazy."
Will Nicholson, 20, a business
major from Washington
Crossing, crashed his jeep in
the snow. Consequently, he
had to drive his Mazda. "Now
that was not good in the snow,"
Nicholson complained. Due to
the snow, he missed work for
two days. He added, "I like
spring semester more because
classes just seem more fun."
Also missing a day of work
because of the snow was a 19-
year-old biology major from
Bensalem, Bridget Haller. She
believes that winter is the
toughest time of the year for
people because business goes
down when people do not want
to leave their houses. Even
though she loves the snow,
Haller announced: "Enough is
enough. Spring is better in my
opinion because it's warmer
and all the flowers bloom."
Another individual who
looks forward to spring is
Chris Loughlin, 19, a liberal
arts major from Richboro.
"I am ready to wear shorts
and play baseball at the park,"
he remarked. Loughlin thinks
winter is the most difficult time
of the year "because the wintry
air and gray skies usually
