UI, other schools cancel second day of classes
By The News-Gazette
Tuesday February 13, 2007
Heavy snow and blinding winds have already forced cancellation of Wednesday classes at many area schools, including the University of Illinois.
According to a UI release, "Continuing high winds and snow have made it impossible to keep streets and sidewalks clear and safe. Only personnel providing critical services should continue to report for each work shift until further notice."
Wednesday classes at the UI Child Development Lab also were canceled.
The university followed the example set earlier in the day by area school districts, including those in Champaign and Urbana.
