Revision as of 18:18, 6 August 2006

NOTE: Guys, as one of the largest and oldest CTY sites, we really need at least as much up here as some of the other places do!

Location

  • Dickinson College, Carlisle, Pennsylvania

Carlisle, Pennsylvania is a pleasant town about 20-30 mins. from Harrisburg. The site is notorious among its regulars for the town's phsycotic drivers. The Campus of Dickinson College is a stately place dating from the 1700s with plenty of open space and trees. Facilities are pretty nice, with air conditioning in all rooms, and the HUB (the central meeting place) contains two stores: The Devil's Den convenience store and a bookshop. Massey's, a great custard stand, is just down the block and some halls go there on rare occasion.

Dorms

  • Referred to as Quads 1-10, Super Quad, and Malcolm (really far away and last used in 2005)
  • Quad Six=Quad Sex
  • Quads Four and Five= superquad(boys only)
  • Malcom(guys only) is know for its basement("no one can hear you scream in Malcom basement") which often floods and has mice
  • KW - Kisner-Woodward Building. (K-Dubbs) The guidance, nurse, and administrative offices are located here, but there are also dorms for CTYers to stay.
  • UBER QUAD! Bigger and better than super quad....a girls only dorm, that is very similar to super quad, only with an additioal, lingering, smell that cannot be identified. It contains EDDIE, the janitor with a TV in his glorious janitors office and posters of scanitly clad women on his wall. He tends to walk down the hall way at 7 in the morning, right when everyone is showering.

-It should also be noted that the lounge of SUPERQUAD (boys dorm) can see clear down the hallway of UBERQUAD (girls dorm). Awkward.

  • McKenney - Between upper quad and the library, this building houses the TAs as well as some of the younger instructors. Obviously, it is strictly off-limits for students.

Betty gets extremely, mind-bendinly hulk angry when kids try to sneak out food for passion friut. A sight to behold. Betty's wrath can also be awakened when she sees people playing with their food (i.e. putting tea leaves in milk.)My hall in Session 1 '06 knows this firsthand.

  • Most RAs being annoying at end of Meet-Market: At the end of every Meet-Market, the RA's are called to the alley. They put their hands on top of each other's, and then they break up screaming "GOOOOO!" telling CTYers to go back to their dorms.
