<p>What a plethora of Hawaiian things on this thread! I went to high school in Hawaii… and I adjusted to Oberlin weather just fine, and I would say my brother adjusted even better.</p>
<p>Winter is a pretty lovely thing, and Oberlin does it justice. I grew up in Kentucky, where is is cold and rarely snows through the winter. Here, it snows, and campus/town/Ohio knows how to deal with it: roads are plowed and salted, as are the sidewalks throughout campus. If you’re going to experience winter, experiencing it in the midwest is a good way to do so.</p>
<p>Then again, I am also a huge fan of seasons and people think I’m crazy for not liking the weather in Hawaii. Grain of salt, obviously.</p>
