Despite having classes canceled on Monday and Tuesday, many students were not worried about the potential effects of the storm.

As Hurricane Sandy made its way along the East Coast yesterday, Syracuse University took precautionary measures to keep students and faculty out of danger.

A weather alert email distributed Monday morning informed the SU community that classes would be canceled until Wednesday, when the school is expected to resume its normal schedule. However, despite the potential dangers of Hurricane Sandy, SU students said they have not felt threatened and have used the two-day break to relax.

Elizabeth Kang, a health and exercise junior, said she feels safe and out of harm’s way.
