A Hillel-sponsored canoe trip for first-years was also postponed today due to the storm, according to Shana M. Starobin '00, co-chair of the Jewish Outdoors Club.
Cancellations are not the only problems facing students. Not only was the Quad itself lake-like most of the day, but Quad residents were forced to walk to and from the main campus because shuttle service is not scheduled to start until Monday.
James A. Colbert '02 said, "there are many four-letter words that could be used to describe the situation."
"I can't live like this," said Michael J. Schultz '02 of the rain-soaked trip from the Quad.
However, students may call the evening shuttle van for service by request from 7 p.m. until 1 a.m.
"It would be nice if it were working because we feel trapped up here," said Andrew R. Spector '02. "I felt the same way before it started raining, but it's worse now."
Those who waited until yesterday to move in were also inconvenienced by the storm.
