The tweets started up hours before a univeristy announcement was made. Would TCU remain closed on the first day of Finals after an ice storm paralyzed the Fort Worth area?

By late afternoon on Dec. 8, it was official: TCU would have a delayed opening. First exams at 11 a.m.

Students took to Twitter to protest, thumbing 140-character missives that ranged from humorous to thoughtful to downright frustrated. Many of them came with the hashtag #tcuice.

Even after Finals went on, the tweets continued, but one clever individual decided Randolph Clark needed to get in on the fun – and shaped him a snowball.
