Winter Months in Worcester


              Clark University: a campus where students love to sit out on the green to do homework, throw a Frisbee around and occasionally take selfies’ with Sigmund Freud in Red Square during the warm Spring/Summer months. The winter storms in the Worcester area unfortunately hinder the outdoor activities of Clark students, but leave a breathtaking gingerbread house-like icing of snow on the buildings around campus.  Clark University’s Anderson House, home of the English Department, looks as if a perfect snowfall had landed softly on its’ roof.  Although the snow makes travelling around campus a frigid and snow blown experience, the Worcester winter is a natural wonder that most see as a scenic time to say the least.  Currently for cumulative 2013-2014 snowfall, Worcester Massachusetts is ranked as the 9th snowiest city in the US by the Golden Snow Globe National Snow Contest Committee.  As this relentless winter drags on into the month of February, residents of Clark University sit back and watch the icicles form until the warm weather of spring begins to appear.
