Student Author OverviewWhat's This?

Gorgeous days aren’t unheard of, but really, really crummy days aren’t, either. Saying that the weather varies widely is, if anything, an understatement. The past couple winters have had snowfalls that ranged from nine inches to 63 inches in all, although 20 to 30 is more typical. Of course, whenever it snows, Fummers make sleds out of dining hall trays and cavort down Buchanan Hill with the local children for fun!

There are a lot of really nice days in the spring and fall. And when that happens, F&M students take advantage of it by sitting out in the sunshine and playing Frisbee. The campus itself is gorgeous year-round, whatever the weather might be.

SNOW!!

This past semester, I experienced snow! Los Angeles does not have snow and in a Pennsylvanian, I experience all four seasons! I was very excited to see snow for the fact that it is something I have never seen or experienced in my life. Although it is pretty cold, I do not mind the beautiful view that the campus has.

Depends on the Season...

Beautiful in the fall until it hits about November. After November, it wont snow until nearly January...but it will be BITTERLY cold. After January, the snow will stick around until early March and then start to melt. By April everything is gone, but it rains like none other here in April...and then school isn't in session in May. So, basically, Fall is your only time of consistently good weather. But, when it is nice outside, EVERYONE hangs outside on the quad or the green. It's alot of fun!
