Quoth Bellairsia: Schnee, eis, und scheistwetter

"I was fortunate enough to observe that phenomenon before which the Aurora Borealis are as Christmas lights - the Notre Dame snow ploughs. There is nothing quite so thrilling as seeing a fleet of these Dreadnoughts sweeping the plain, transforming the snow-covered wastes into ice-covered wastes for the convenience of the student."

John Bellairs - Notre Dame Scholastic (January 23, 1959)
