January\u2019s school-closing snowstorm created such a tremendous shock to students and administration alike, Bryan College has chosen to change from a college to an ice skating rink.<\/span><\/p>\n

Construction on \u201cMann\u2019s Lake,\u201d as it is to be called, will begin immediately. This will involve the destruction of every residential dormitory except for Robinson, which will be repurposed as a luxury hotel.<\/span><\/p>\n

When Rhea County experienced its worst snowstorm in over 30 years, most residents considered the event a danger and an inconvenience. However, marketing specialist Dr. Ahfull I. Dea saw the opportunity for a grand new business venture.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s perfect,\u201d she said. \u201cThe whole campus completely freezes over. You can\u2019t do anything but slide and skate\u2026 it\u2019s a winter paradise! People will come from all over to experience this.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Many students and faculty have tried to inquire about their concerns with the idea, including the number of workers who will suddenly be without a career. These ideas have been met with Dr. Dea\u2019s timeless motto, \u201cJust don\u2019t worry about it, man.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

The Triangle (the location, not the incredible magazine worthy of your continued support) will be leveled and sprayed with water to build an icy rink of fun. The sidewalks and roads, however, will be left just the same. They will be regarded as \u201cexpert rinks,\u201d where the likelihood of slipping on the ice is significantly high.<\/span><\/p>\n

Dayton residents have presented a mixed reaction to the idea. Some individuals are dismayed over the prospect of losing the Christ-centric foundation which influenced the city so heavily.<\/span><\/p>\n

Other residents seem more hopeful. \u201cThis is what Dayton\u2019s always been about,\u201d one resident said. \u201cIce skating and debating evolutionism!\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

The team ready to enact this decision seem dismissive of the effects of suddenly shutting down a college. They are developing a new guideline called the \u201cStinks to Be You\u201d policy, which will be applied to any student who complains about the loss of their degree.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cFewer people got hurt sledding than they did on the slip \u2018n\u2019 slide,\u201d one marketer says. \u201cWe only have the student population\u2019s best interest at heart.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

During a press conference, one Triangle reporter asked Dr. Dea what they planned to do in regard to the increasing heat which has already melted the ice. Dr. Dea gave a look of concern before shuffling around her papers. \u201cWe didn\u2019t think of that,\u201d she eventually said. \u201cWe\u2019ll figure out something, I guess.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

The renovation team has yet to figure out something.<\/span><\/p>\n
