Loudonville is a site in [http://www.siena.edu/ Sienna college], a Christian college near Albany, New York. The Christianity can be annoying to many non-Christians since pictures of a dead Jesus are on every door. To some, this may seem reassuring, but to non-Christians, it's very creepy. Loudonville is the only site where one is not allowed to say "DIE! DIE! DIE!" during [[American Pie]] in the [[Canon]]. This is because the Loudonville site was previously moved from another location, which no longer does CTY. At that location, someone comitted suicide after hearing that song, and in the suicide note, he wrote about people saying "DIE! DIE! DIE!". Apparently, he was taking it literally, so to avoid another suicide, it is not said.

Loudonville is a site at Siena College, a Roman Catholic school near Albany, New York. The Christianity may be annoying to many non-Christians, since there are crucifixes in nearly every room (none in the dorm rooms, though). They even have monks and there is a resident friar on the third floor of the girls' dorm (he never comes out). This is the only site where one is not encouraged to chant "DIE! DIE! DIE!" during American Pie in the Canon. Also known as the gypsy site, the CTY program has moved from Hamilton College in Clinton, NY to Union College in Schenectady, NY and finally to Siena.

Although the girls' dorm rooms in Padua Hall are nice, clean, air-conditioned, and have single bathrooms (no communal showers or anything), the boys' in Ryan Hall aren't quite so nice. If you're a girl, you might still want to bring that electric fan and desk lamp so some guy in your class can borrow them for the session. Some people refer to the site as "sexist" for this reason.
