A Commuter’s Perspective on Inclement Weather Schedule

There are about 500 traditional students on campus and nearly half are commuters. Bluefield College has more commuters this year than previous years. In my opinion, as a student that commutes, I think there have been days that Bluefield College should have implemented the inclement weather schedule.

On days of inclement weather, other colleges in the surrounding area were closed or classes were delayed; however, BC did not utilize the inclement weather schedule. I feel like classes are not delayed or cancelled due to the number of students that live on campus; even though, there are more students commuting this year. 

In the future, it would be greatly appreciated if commuters were taken into consideration and the inclement weather schedule would be utilized more.
