Adam Roush

Adam Roush is an extremely well-known and well-loved RA at Lancaster. Having gone to one session of CTY as a student and several as an RA, and expressing a desire to become a TA in the furture, Adam may never leave.
He is best known as the RA of First Dietz, a one-year hall in '04 that nonetheless has a large following to this day. Indeed, he was the catalyst for the creation of the ever-popular Tunak Tunak Tun dance. Speaking of dances, he has (in the past few years) provided input for the Rocky Horror Picture Show tribute that takes place at the Second Saturday dance each year.
Adam also has mystical and superhuman powers. Indeed, at the Second Friday dance at second session '06, he broke up a group of girls who were inappropriatley dancing (aka grinding train)...with his mind.

The man is intense

He is also well known for pre-emptive finger wagging towards innocent girls with pure intentions who would never even THINK of breaking any PDA rules. He was, understandably, the nemesis of Nixon.
Roush is also reknowned for his prowess in the fields of banjo and MC-ing. Specifically in comparison to his evil, evil foil, the student talent show MC.

Frank Wang

FRANK WANG = GOD

Frank Wang is a a former CTYer and RA at Saint Marys 05.02 (05.01?) and Lancaster 06.1 and 06.2. He is known for being strict, but with a humorous and cuddly side that comes out very occasionally. He is also well known for, halfway through the first session of '06, demanding that all students pronounce his last name as "Wong" not "Wang". After the first sleepover at Lancaster 06.1 Frank banned sleepovers for the rest of the session because one the the people sleeping over "felt uncomfortable". No one knew who this was (thought I, Kevin Lee, suspect it was Jared). Many people who slept over were interrigated in Frank's room to figure out what was going on.

Frank also ran a system where he would raise a finger each time he was annoyed with the students. If he reached 3 fingers everyone would have lights out early for the rest of the session. In CTY 06.1 Frank got to 2.5 fingers and according to my sources he never got to two fingers during the secound session. This prooved an effective means of making his students behave because prior to this we would always misbehave in hall meetings. He was a "Princeton Gangsta" who would always be strict on his residents. We were not allowed to use the microwave without RA suppervision and on the first night he caught me with my lights on. In fact one kid (Thomas "TJ" Gamper) feared Frank Wang so much that he had to go to the bathroom so badly after lights out that he urinated into his trash can rather than face Frank Wang and ask him if he could go use a urinal.

He's a good singer and yells a lot. People often mistake him for being angry even though he is just naturally loud.

Frank Wang became a mild cult figure in both 2006 sessions, spawning many "Frank Wang jokes" such as "Frank Wang only swung his lanyard once. The world didn't need another Grand Canyon." He was often referenced in Acting Improv.

Frank Wang now has his own entry in the Nomore-Nomicon. He is apparently an alien.

He also banned pelvic thrusting on his hall second session '06.

He also followed the Hager. Speaking of which, does anyone have a picture of him while he was looming over Schnader on the porch railing?

Carlisle

Ian Hull

Ian Hull is an RA at Carlisle. Declared legally dead five(?) times, he is famous for his injuries. This fame partially comes from the activity "Ian's bizarre medical stories" offered each session at carlisle. Since 05, Ian has offered another activity in which campers dye his hair (pink. blue, violet) and ultimately make him beautiful.

Ian is also the tech god for talent shows, and knows his way around the ATS: not an easy feat.

Jacob the Jeweler

Resident Advisor Jacob Weisfeld, Captain Groundbat himself, who resided over the Philosophy B and Exit B boys (Session 2, 2006). His nickname was born of the minds of a few hip-hop savvy campers shortly after his hosting, along with Pat Curran, of the discussion group Hip-Hop: East Coast v. West Coast. It stems from famed jewelery seller Jacob Arabo and is a sarcastic jab at his purported high authority on all matters hip-hop. The Jeweler was a notorious "Space Nazi", and was also known for his anti-making-out tactics that involved performing pop songs at a high volume. Jacob will be forever remembered in the hearts of a few for his affirmations of rapper Snoop Dogg's wholesome, commodified, family-friendliness as well as rapper Tupac Shakur's gentle, ballet-dancing demeanor. It should be known that the nickname Jacob the Jeweler is not perjorative but affectionate, in a completely nonsexual way.

Pat Clark

A quite awesome RA/TA with a twin who was once an RA. He has TAed Pop culture, The 60's, Modern Europeon History and Dissent. At one time there was a hall of shame article about him as the "TA from Purgatory", and making inapporpriete jokes. when asked about it, he said that he had simply made a Micheal Jackson joke that, "was only a bit off color, not wholey inapropriete".

Pat is very awesome, and is a cool guy and a good TA.
