Thursday night’s Singarama show that was scheduled for 7:30 p.m. in Collins Alumni Auditorium has been canceled due to road conditions and snow accumulation. Thursday’s showing of the highly anticipated event — that many students have worked on since January — will not be rescheduled. But Friday’s show at 7:30 p.m. and Saturday’s 2 and 7:30 p.m. showings remain on schedule as of today. Meanwhile, the Singarama groups “Ready,” “Set” and “Go” will continue working on their performances. “Another day of practice never hurt anyone,” sophomore Zack Eccleston said. While more practice time is helpful for the teams, Eccleston said he is still eager to perform the show for an audience. “We’re all ready for people to see it,” Eccleston said. “Hard work might be an understatement. “We had a month less to work on our shows this year compared to last year, so everyone’s been really great about learning everything in half the time we got last year,” Eccleston said. “Our directors have been incredible in creating this show, and everyone participating in it has put in so many hours to get these dances down, learn the music and still put a focus on school work at the same time.” This year’s Singarama production is Ready, Set, Go! featuring groups led by student directors Anne Claire Smith, Carolanne Deaton and John Alex Foster. Despite the weather, Singarama participant and freshman Eliza Claire Neese is ready to perform. “Our energy is high and I feel we are ready to perform,” Neese said. “If the weather is too dangerous [Friday] I encourage people to attend a different night, as the shows have been rigorously created...

Almost two inches of snow covered campus early Thursday morning. Classes have been canceled for Thursday, as the snow has quickly accumulated, in addition to low wind chills. Davidson County has been issued a Winter Storm Warning that began at 6 p.m. Wednesday and will be in effect until noon today. The Campus Service Operations team has worked on clearing snow from Bison Square and major sidewalks throughout the morning. University offices are closed, except for those essential to the safety and welfare of campus residents. The dining hall is open as usual, but other dining options will open based on the availability staff.
