The snow descended on the campus with suddenness and silence, whitening cornices on the Cathedral and drifting down on abandoned motor scooters in the Student Union drive. For commuting students, the snow was only an annoyance as it doubled their traveling time and rendered their automobiles useless. For those on campus, snow meant that all activities, except snowball fights and snowman building, would now take place indoors. As students went from class to class during the day, the snow made the walk from Langley Hall to the Cathedral a nuisance. The snow drifted down the collars of their jackets and dampened the paper in their notebooks, along with giving them wet feet and flu that later proved to be an opportune excuse for class cutting.

For many of the students, their educational progress was often lonely. It was long hours bent over a desk in the poorly-lit Commons Room and lonely trudges through the deepening snow to Carnegie Library for a book that the Pitt library had not taken the trouble to purchase. It was silent evenings spent alone in a room with the snow drifting deep and feathery on the windowsill, trying to read two hundred and fifty pages before the exam that was scheduled for eight the next morning. It was trying to find a quiet spot for some precious last-minute search for additional information with which to pad a paper. It was becoming lost in a textbook, trying to assimilate in a single night fifteen weeks of knowledge. It was often a lonely world.
