A brief description of the snow and ice removal program, policy, or practice:
Over the past few years, Wesleyan has moved away from using sand because of large cleanup challenges and damage to building floors. Instead, Wesleyan now uses Magic Salt, an organic treatment, on most campus walkways. Conventional bagged salt is still used on stairways for use on concrete.
