EDITORIAL: Well Done

Kudos to the University forKudos to the University forextending the add periodKudos to the University forextending the add period_____________________________ Considering the havoc caused by the record-breaking cold and ice, it was the right thing to do. Add period was originally supposed to end on Friday. Despite the fact that PARIS was open, many students were unable to meet with their advisers and professors because of the weather. As a result, many students were left unable to register, add, or drop classes due to conditions well beyond their control. Congratulations to the administration for not leaving them out in the cold. We hope this kind of flexible, common-sense thinking will continue throughout the year.
