ASFC

The ASFC (short for "Alumni & Student Fitness Center", also affectionately known as the "ass-fuck") is a gym used by CTY students at Lancaster 2004. Activities such as swimming are held here. If it rains on a Saturday or Friday, the dance will be moved from in front of the dining hall to here. As terrible as this is, the ASFC is somehow (somehow being the existence of ventilation) vastly superior to the Mayser Gym, where rained-out dances have very occassionally been held.

In 2004, the dining hall was being renovated, so CTYers had to eat all three meals in the ASFC. Further indignity was heaped on the students when, during the second week of the second session, a crafts fair was held in the ASFC, forcing the meals to be held in a circus tent on Weis Field. "The Big Top", as it was affectionately known by the administration, was almost universally reviled for its heat, lack of space, and implication that CTYers were like barnyard animals who were merely there to be led to the trough.

NOTE: I've always heard it pronounced phonetically: "Ay-ess-eff-see."

Hartman Green

Hartman Green is a green area on the Franklin & Marshall campus (the LAN site). It is a popular location for classes to hold breaks and includes numerous walkways for students with bad aim to throw Frisbees over, which usually gets them confiscated. It is also the site of the Passionfruit and the Electric Tree, a tree with a power socket installed near the base of the trunk.

At the LAN.05.2 closing ceremony, the History of Disease and Archaeology classes performed a skit titled "The Excavation and Disease Control of Hartman Green."

Mayser Gym

The other gym that CTYers use besides the ASFC. Those who sign up for basketball, volleyball, and some other sports for activities will go here. Occassionally, if a dance is rained out, it will be held here. Due to a near-total lack of ventilation, Mayser is the worst possible dance location.
