How is a Jeff reference a diversion? :)

If you were here in 78 you would understand.

That was a REAL snow event. Listed as 26 inches but really closer to 3 feet.

Oh, I was there. Just not over at Jeff Hill. Winter quarter ‘78 was my last one.

I was probably at Copeland while many were out “frolicking”. As I recall the classes were pretty sparse. I think I now know one of the reasons. ;)

Our high school bball team still had practice during/immediately after the 1978 storm. Anyone who didn't walk to the gym through 3 feet of snow/ice (parents refused to drive us - or at least mine did) had to run extra post-practice sprints throughout the next week.

BTW, our starting point guard was Keith Dambrot. Unbelievably slow.

The elongated twin size vinyl mattresses they had in the dorms in the early 2000s could really fly down the hill with about 6 people on one...

I lived in Lincoln and Johnson Halls on East Green so had great proximity!

I had a good window view from my 3rd floor triple and stairwell window to pull up a chair and watch the carnage :)
