Corvallis, Oregon State University, and the rest of the northwest have had some interesting weather these past few days. Late starts, delays, icy roads, snow tires, and school closures for the day have been the norm around here this week, but that usually isn’t the case. I spoke with Alex in the visitor’s center who has lived here for 28 years and she said that this has been the most snow she’s seen in Corvallis since she can remember! I was snapping some photos of campus and met with some current international students from Thailand who were outside the Valley Library enjoying the snow! Thanks to Lindsay and Beth (two members of the Office of Admissions team) and Rick from OSU’s Ecampus for sending some of the other photos my way. Check ‘em out!

For Corvallis, this is a lot of snow, but OSU has remained open for business for the most part. You can view the campus alert status by visiting this website or calling 541-737-8000.

To our prospective students: please note that the members of the office of admissions are working hard to respond to your inquiries! We appreciate your patience and flexibility as we continue to battle mother nature!

To everyone: please drive safely during this holiday season!
