China doesn't have plows...it has people

It snowed last night in Tianjin, the evening before classes were set to begin. As I was showing Abbie around the campus today, I kept seeing well dressed people dragging shovels behind them as they walked down the main street on the school's property. Finally we ran into someone we knew and asked where everyone was off to-- Apparently the teachers and faculty had to all grab a shovel and help with the clearing of the snow! (I do not think that would go over too well back in the states) No need for machine power when you can use MAN power.
