If you are willing to learn how to bike carefully and you accept that you're going to fall every now and then, I'd absolutely recommend it. Me and my friends biked all through the winters, and I only ever used a bike with thin tires. They clear the bike paths with great consistency, at least on campus. For roads in the area, get comfortable taking a lane of traffic since roadway bike lanes are less consistently cleared.
You've got to dress properly for it (see my other comment here), but I couldn't tell you how much time I saved by biking nonstop through my four years here with only 10 or so falls (which were more like baseball slides anyways). There are a couple days where biking is just impossible due to ice (which can even be managed with studded tires, though I never had them). For the most part, biking on campus in winter is just a matter of braking/turning slowly and gradually and avoiding sudden movements in general.
