Zim, colleges don't close for anything short of a nuclear war. Even then, they have to have been directly struck...repeatedly.

Arg, I'm the only one here in class so far! :(
 

My college never closes because a former student actually won a lawsuit where she sued the school for reimbursement for lost tuition dollars during a school closure. So the U of Michigan never closes.

Move to the more southern states where it still snows but rarely enough that they can at best poorly handle the snow *coughcoughsouthernIndianacoughcough* You'll get plenty of days off from school.
