From City College, though, Squaw Valley is 112 miles away. That’s an estimated two hours for the average driver.

Charles Bernard, a City College student who enjoys doing cross-country snowboarding, can’t find the time to go as much as he would like.

“I just have a lot of work to do,” Bernard says.

School and work seem to get in the way of even the most passionate students.

Hope is not lost for college students on a budget. Squaw Valley USA has introduced a college pass for the ‘08/’09 season. All you have to do is go to squaw.com/college-pass, the college pass is $299, which is great compared to the $1,449 for a regular season pass.

It is unlikely City College students will be gearing up for the snow anytime soon. With classes and homework taking–priority and trying to catch up on sleep–going skiing or snowboarding will most likely take a back seat to, well, safer things in life.
