| Description | The Scroll newspaper has been in print since 1905, when BYU-Idaho was known as the Ricks Academy, a locally run school with a newly-developed high school program. At the time this newspaper was known as the “Student Rays,” and was printed monthly. In 1933 the name of the newspaper changed to “The Purple Flash.” In 1937 the name was changed again to “Viking Flashes,” and in 1938 the name finally changed to “The Viking Scroll.” The paper continued under this name until 1972, when it changed to “The Scroll.” The Scroll is still in print at BYU-Idaho as its official newspaper. |

According to Lynn Thomson, a Ricks College instructor of physics and a meteorologist, the recent snowstorms are not unusual for this area: These storms are frequent enough that they are not an oddity." However, uncommon or not, the storms caused problems as students were traveling to return to college. Roads throughout Utah and Idaho were closed on Thursday and Friday, leaving many returning students stranded in various towns. " All the hotels were crammed in Pocatello" said Ken Kanenwisher, a Ricks sophomore from Hamilton, Mont. Kanenwisher, who went off the road and into a ditch once during his trip, was unable to get to Provo on Thursday to take his brother back to Brigham Young University. Nanette Esplin, a freshman from Delta Colo., encountered bad road conditions when she reached Idaho. " When we got to Pocatello, we couldn't even see. The trip took much longer than it usually does" she said.
