Monday's overnight storm delivered more than a "snow day" for Penn College students and employees; it fostered divergent opinion from separate corners of campus.

Teacher Gail (Landers) asked her what weather girls do, and Kylee responded accurately enough that they say what the weather will be. Then she added that she wants to do this job so she can say, 'No more snow!'"
