Siena CTY gets negative article in college paper
During Session 1 of 2004, the Siena student newspaper came out with an especially vicious editorial lambasting CTY students. A CTYer enrolled in the Astronomy course wrote a letter of rebuttal to the newspaper and circulated it, collecting over 50 signatures. It was presented to the site director, who said that he would look over it and submit it to the paper if he deemed it appropriate. As the paper isn't available online, the letter's fate remains unknown.

The Peeing Bandit"
At Skidmore College, session 1, 2005, there was a bandit on the lose. During the last week, a boy decided to pee all over the bathroom wall. The next day, all the guys were called to a meeting, at which the RA's proceded to threaten the guys with horrible things if no one confessed. Shortley after the meeting, the bandit had struck again, and two more bathrooms were destroyed. The RA's brutally took away quad time for all the guys. The girls were in an uprage, and rumors started to circulate that the last dance was at stake. That night, the badit struck for the last time, but was not caught. After intensive interogations, the RA's gave up. All privialges were re-instated, but we never found out who the peeing bandit was. It might remain a CTY mystery forever.
