Everyone from up north is going to laugh at this, but the power was knocked out for about a day and the cable was out for almost three days up in Athens because about a foot of snow fell on Sunday. The roads were iced over for two days (no snow plows in Georgia) and I had to cancel an interview because I was stuck in the girlfriends apartment.

It was the most snow we've had in 15+ years, and it's supposed to be 70 degrees today, go figure.

Didn't know there was anyone else in Athens on these forums... I'm at the University right now! Yeah this snow was awesome... the best thing is that it's ~75 degrees now and there's still snow outside!

Go 'Dawgs!

^I lived in Marietta when I was a kid, for about a year. (81/82)

It snowed, maybe 3 inches, and everything (including school) was closed.

Being from Rhode Island, originally, I found this ridiculous. But it makes sense... why have the equipment if you rarely, if ever, use it?

Dawg - I've visited Athens several times and really liked the area. Them Georgia peaches on sorority pledging day were AWESOME!!!!!!!

Beautiful little college town.

Yes, I love Athens. Too bad I had to move, there's no real jobs in a college town. Sorority row on Milledge for bid day is a beautiful site, all the new hot sororistitutes in white dresses... lovely. Beats the hell out of Atlanta, in Athens you can get pitchers of beer for $3 and pitchers of well drinks for $4-$5, Atlanta one beer is about $5!! I've never really been anywhere that compares to Athens, Austin might be the closest thing but it doesn't come close IMO.

And I was going to take my next job in Georgia, to get away from the cold and snow.

Athens really is great! Especially when it gets warm out... makes you glad to be alive and have sight.

Where are you now Dawgfan? I will be in Athens on my victory lap next year as a 5th year dual-degree undergrad and hope to lock up a job this summer.

^ I'm in Atlanta right now, but it looks like I'll be moving to Daytona if this job I'm going after right now pans out.

Most of my friends took the 5 year route, and only had one major so enjoy your time. My only advice would be to start busting your ass in your spare time to line up interviews for jobs, the market for new grads is worse than the rest of the economy right now.
