“If it’s a rule, they probably should. KU does such a bad job, we don’t need Lawrence doing a bad job, too.”

— Asma Rehman, KU senior, Kansas City, Mo.

“Yes. It’s a common courtesy. You don’t want to be walking in front of someone’s house and fall because they didn’t clean off their sidewalk.”

— Jimmie Bowser, telemarketer, Lawrence

“I think it’s too hard to clear ice off. You can’t get under it with a shovel. Maybe they should hire a couple people to clear off sidewalks.”

— Nathan Poell, KU graduate student, Lawrence

“Yes and no. It’s important for mail carriers and guests visiting a house, but there are older people who physically can’t do it and can’t afford to hire someone to do it.”

— Wendy Wheeler, teacher, Lawrence
