OSWEGO, NY— Something on everyone’s mind: those cold Oswego winters.
It has been three weeks since the end of summer, and the cold weather is already creeping into Oswego. Many residents have started preparing themselves for the inevitable cold by wearing extra layers, like resident Azrien “Az” Wilson.
“Just a bunch of blankets, socks, sweats, kind of just taking care of myself. I’m not really worried about the room, as long as I’m warm,” said Wilson.
Other residents have been following suit and are starting to stockpile on winter clothes, including Ubong Udofa.
“Stocking up on my jackets, coats, and sweaters, sweatpants, my scarves, and my boots, too,” said Udofa.
With many residents being freshman and transfer students, it’s always good to know what tips and resources are available to help prepare for the winter weather from resident assistants, including Jessa Costa.
“We have heaters behind the desk that they can rent out, you can’t have them for too long but they definitely help temporarily in that moment,” said Costa. “Just make sure you’re bundled up, and hopefully the heating in the building is working well.”
Another good tip, don’t put any furniture in front of the radiator, because it will cause the heat to stay trapped.
For more information on further resources, talk to your resident assistant or hall director.
