Colleges and snow days manifest much the same here. I'm at a commuter college and down the road is a residential one. We call snow days usually by canceling afternoon and evening classes after all the staff has made it to campus (admin taking pity only on students) and the one down the road just says "everyone lives on campus, right?" To my knowledge the only time they canceled school was a blizzard in 1978 and don't want to seem excessive so have never done it again.
