| | + | '''NOTE: If your Hall of Fame entry has disappeared, it has probably been moved to [[Memories]]. If you are the author and you are wondering why, the likely reason is that people from your site/session agreed that the event or act was not quite as memorable as you may believe it to be. The distinction between HoF and Memories is admittedly a little hazy, but the criterion for deciding where a given entry ends up usually boils down to whether (1) it had lasting effect or (2) it was a large-scale and positive rules protest, change, or breakage; most HoF entries fall into one of these two groups. Many well-known events or stunts that were famous in a given session but not necessarily carried to later years can be found in the Memories pages. If your entry entirely, please contact an admin who will restore it to the proper Memories page, or feel free to put it up there yourself.''' |

| − | One
| |
| − | of the most infamous displays of weirdness was put on by Judy at
| |
| − | CAR-1-96 and LAN-2-96. Through both sessions, Judy wore a stuffed green
| |
| − | frog named Carmen on her head. Carmen managed to hold her perch through
| |
| − | class, activities, hall meetings, meals, social time, and even dances.
| |
| − | During first session, Judy and her friend down the hall, Won, hooked
| |
| − | Carmen up with Won's stuff walrus John, making them "the cutest stuffed
| |
| − | animal couple in Carlisle." Second session, Carmen managed to become a
| |
| − | scapegoat for the Lancaster faculty, who unjustly blamed her for all
| |
| − | their problems. Wearing Carmen earned Judy the nickname "Frog girl" and
| |
| − | earned them both a place in the CTY Hall of Fame.

| |

| |
| − | guess what appeared on the talent show program cover? You guessed it,
| |
| − | Gary's hair. Any CTYer who was there that year remember that incident,

| |
| − | | |
| − | At
| |
| − | CAR-1-96, the RA's were soliciting pictures for the cover of the
| |
| − | yearbook. One memo threatened, "if you don't send us pictures, we will
| |
| − | be forced to put CHUCK on the cover of the yearbook." and supplied a
| |
| − | picture of Chuck. However, a large percentage of the CTY population
| |
| − | decided that they ''wanted'' Chuck on the cover. Despite much
| |
| − | campaigning, Chuck never made it onto the cover of the yearbook. He
| |
| − | did, however, appear on the talent show program, get his own (now
| |
| − | defunct) web page and earn a spot in the CTY Hall of Fame.

| |
| − | | |
| − | </center>
| |
| − | | |
| − | At
| |
| − | Lancaster in 1993, four guys who took geology together and (like
| |
| − | everyone else at CTY) had lots of in-jokes. They were all 15, and one
| |
| − | running joke involved interesting ways to keep the younger CTYers on
| |
| − | their hall in line. Swirlies became the preferred method. (Although
| |
| − | none was ever actually administered, they were a helluva lot of fun to
| |
| − | joke about). Basically, a swirly meant taking a punk by the collar and
| |
| − | dunking his head in the toilet. <br /> In the second week of the
| |
| − | session, one of them made an impromptu costume for Swirly Man, Defender
| |
| − | of the CTY Faith, and wrote a theme song for this new superhero that
| |
| − | regaled his super powers and CTY traditions. Swirly Man soon had a
| |
| − | sidekick named Toilet Boy; and two other superheros, Horny Man and
| |
| − | Mental Man, were also soon born. Each had his own theme song. The four
| |
| − | of them together made appearances at dances, activity periods, and
| |
| − | other events; but their mortal identities were never known outside of
| |
| − | their hall. The next year, the superheros reunited and made appearances
| |
| − | all over campus. At the final dance, they were in high demand among the
| |
| − | ladies. Their mortal identities might have slipped out that last night,
| |
| − | but regardless, they made it into the CTY Hall of Fame

| − | Pierre
| |
| − | the Melancholy Squirrel, aka Tim Shumaker, has attended quite a few
| |
| − | sessions at Carlisle, from the years '95-'97. He is frequently seen at
| |
| − | discussion group, and in fact once led his own unofficial discussion
| |
| − | group, entitled "Pierre." One can spot Pierre by his half of a beard,
| |
| − | his infamous rants about Hobbes, Marx, and the Simpsons, and his
| |
| − | trademark "Buh?!?" Pierre was a frequent potraial in Improv sketches,
| |
| − | though Pierre himself rarely attended Improv, and was part of the acts
| |
| − | for both the first session and second session MC's in the '97 talent
| |
| − | shows. Because of all this, Pierre has become part of the CTY Hall of
| |
| − | Fame.

| |
| − | | |
| − | In the
| |
| − | Writing 2A class room at SAR-2-95, there was an interesting artifact.
| |
| − | In the back of the room, there was a large, pyramid shaped sculpture
| |
| − | made entirely of chairs, the kind with desks attached. It appears the
| |
| − | creators, Ben and Bailey, thought that there were too many chairs in
| |
| − | the classroom, and got them out of the way by piling them precariously
| |
| − | on top of one another. Rumors of the sculpture spread and soon many
| |
| − | CTYers were making pilgrimages to see it. Though it was dismantled at
| |
| − | the end of the session, it earned a place in the CTY Hall of Fame.

| |
| − | | |
| − | </center>
| |
| − | | |
| − | At
| |
| − | Clinton Session One of '97, an interesting theory circulated.
| |
| − | Basically, it stated that there is but a single squirrel. He is a
| |
| − | mystical five-dimensional beast, which means he can travel in the
| |
| − | regular 3, and also time and dimensions.
| |
| − | His dimension hopping abilities allow him to go into another dimension
| |
| − | and pull back a copy of himself from that dimension, which explains how
| |
| − | you could see more than one at once, or in different places, or how
| |
| − | they would look different, because in other dimensions, he would have
| |
| − | undergone different life's conditions, and that would have altered his
| |
| − | appearance. This theory, created by Dwight Bussman, was told throughout
| |
| − | the session, and remembered well by CTYers who were there, thus earning
| |
| − | it a place in the CTY Hall of Fame.

| |
| − | | |
| − | Two
| |
| − | students at Loyola Marymount had found out, through a teacher, of the
| |
| − | existence of Loyola Marymount campus radio. The radio broadcasts
| |
| − | throughout the campus (and outside some). On the second Friday of the
| |
| − | session, they managed to find where this radio station was, and
| |
| − | actually got into the studio. Eventually, the DJ was convinced to give
| |
| − | them airtime. After giving their remarks on how much fun the session
| |
| − | was and on the CTY administration, they got a brilliant idea and
| |
| − | announced the CTY dance that evening, inviting anyone who wished to
| |
| − | come. To their surprise that night, several people showed up but were
| |
| − | turned back by the puzzled RA's "guarding" the dance. The shere
| |
| − | intuitiveness of the stunt earned it a place in the CTY Hall of Fame

| |
| − | | |
| − | The
| |
| − | second floor Kimball hall at Saratoga 1996-1 saw an excellent example
| |
| − | of the weirdness that CTY can induce this session. Following a sunday
| |
| − | trip into Saratoga Springs,
| |
| − | construction was begun by students Daniel Terry (astronomy), Michael
| |
| − | Tolan
| |
| − | (Math), et al. on "The Gummi bear House of Horrors." This frightening
| |
| − | exhibit
| |
| − | took the remainder of the first session to complete, including around
| |
| − | 40
| |
| − | examples of mutilated sugar. Among these bears were "Ritualistic
| |
| − | Satanic
| |
| − | Sacrifice Bear" and "Jeffery Dahmer Bear" as well as a bear mashed into
| |
| − | the
| |
| − | carpet, and one nailed to the door (hammers are good things to have at
| |
| − | CTY).
| |
| − | Also adorning the room was a sign proudly proclaiming "Don't Feed the

| |
| − | | |
| − | At CAR Session
| |
| − | 1&2 '00, The Latin class started the 'Offerings to Hecate'. Hecate
| |
| − | was the Roman goddess of the crossroads, and traditionally when Romans
| |
| − | crossed major intersections, they left food on the road for her, so she
| |
| − | wouldn't come and take their souls. They started to drop food in the
| |
| − | crosswalks between the HUB and the academic quad... little things at
| |
| − | first, like crackers, but then it evolved into things like whole
| |
| − | toasted bagels with cream cheese, ice cream bars, whole sandwiches
| |
| − | (with lettuce and tomato, of course), and peeled bananas. It spread
| |
| − | through the campus, and soon many people who didn't know of Hecate were
| |
| − | making offerings to keep her from stealing their souls. It continued
| |
| − | into second session, until RAs, siting the mess and the waste of food,
| |
| − | put a stop to it.

| |
| − | | |
| − | At
| |
| − | Skidmore in 1997 the administration was making new rules left and
| |
| − | right. People were having new rules created for them such as "No
| |
| − | dancing in the rain," "Don't Make an Idiot of Yourself" and "No
| |
| − | stuffing bras" so Jeremiah and Tim decided they wanted a rule of their
| |
| − | own. The solution was to bite all those handy rule sheets and signs the
| |
| − | RAs posted around our dorm. Soon it caught on and several other
| |
| − | degenerates were chomping on the signs. Eventually the powers that be
| |
| − | got sick of it and decided that was enough. They called a meeting
| |
| − | before one of the dances and asked for the vandals to fess up, rather
| |
| − | than ruin a perfectly good dance for all the guys, they confessed and
| |
| − | claimed temporary insanity. Luckily, no one got in trouble. But out of
| |
| − | this event came a new rule, "No Biting the Signs," and a new entry in
| |
| − | the CTY Hall of Fame.

| |
| − | | |
| − | </center>
| |
| − | | |
| − | In
| |
| − | 94 at Saratoga, an RA named Terry Olson became the God figure of a
| |
| − | small cult. This came about when Terry broke his leg while
| |
| − | demonstrating a dance for his RA group that he wanted them to perform
| |
| − | during the mandatory Lip Synch that year. Several members of his RA
| |
| − | group hailed him as a martyr and soon elevated him to a deity. To
| |
| − | spread their "religion," Terryism, they performed a skit at the Talent
| |
| − | Show, with an insert in the program about [http://www.geocities.com/Area51/Nebula/6140/cty/terryisgod.html Terryism]
| |
| − | Also, later, they altered their CTY t-shirts to read "The Center for
| |
| − | Terryistic Youth." Easily one of the strangest things to happen at CTY,
| |
| − | it deserves a place in the CTY Hall of Fame.

| |
| − | | |
| − | '''Hope for the Flowers'''
| |
| − | is a book about caterpillars, with lots of nice pictures. But it is
| |
| − | more than that. It's a sort of inspirational warm-fuzzy type thing too.
| |
| − | saraht started the tradition of reading Hope For the Flowers aloud. The
| |
| − | second Saturday of each session, CTYers gather under a tree at the
| |
| − | upper quad in Carlisle and enjoy the peace and togetherness. Though
| |
| − | many CTYers don't know about Hope for the Flowers, it is a wonderful
| |
| − | tradition that deserve to grow into a passionfruit-like event. Thus,
| |
| − | I'm adding it to the CTY Hall of Fame.

| − | in this hall, even though it also appears in the Sounds of CTY. After
| |
| − | being sung by the MCs at the 97-2 CAR talent show, it took the campus
| |
| − | by storm. Many CTYers had the tune stuck in their heads, and Jeffrey
| |
| − | Morrow, the songs author, was kept busy filling the demand for copies
| |
| − | of the lyrics. Things that weren't cool began being referred to as "not

| |
| − | | |
| − | In 2000 at

| |
| − | least i was being safe!". The next day he was locked in an
| |
| − | administrative office and wasn't allowed to see or talk to anyone).
| |
| − | Everyone hung around the window of the office to see him, and he was
| |
| − | passed food through the window. When his supporters were seen, they
| |
| − | moved him somewhere he couldn't be found. Almost immediately people
| |
| − | started chanting FREE LEE-KAI! Then the sidewalk chalk came out. All
| |
| − | over the walkways and even the side of the building under the office
| |
| − | windows everyone wrote Free Lee Kai. When the RAs dutifully washed it
| |
| − | off, his supporters skipped daily's and stood outside the windows
| |

| |
| − | of the New York Times, detailing the discovery of a evil scheme, in
| |
| − | which Deaf Mexicans were forced into slavery in the US. This in itself
| |
| − | wouldn't have gained the attention of CTYers, if the New York Times
| |
| − | hadn't displayed such a strange obsession with the story. For the rest
| |
| − | of the week, front page headlines blared things like, "DEAF MEXICANS
| |
| − | WRITE POSTCARDS!!" while on page 8, small countries were being over
| |
| − | thrown. When they caught Versatci's killer on page two, the Deaf
| |
| − | Mexicans were eating waffles on page 1. This bizarre media event
| |
| − | captured the minds of CTYers and inspired several wonderful discussion

| − | The
| |
| − | DigiClan started in 1994 at Lancaster, with a group of students taking
| |
| − | digi. Through the years, the DigiClan has grown and expanded. It runs a
| |
| − | mailing list, a [http://www.digiclan.org webpage], and
| |
| − | holds many reunions. Soon after its creation, it merged with the Land
| |
| − | of the Large Round Tables, and since then, it has been adding members,
| |
| − | some CTYers, some not. A perfect example of CTY friendships overcoming
| |
| − | distance and time, the DigiClan deserves a place in the CTY hall of
| |
| − | fame.

| − | At
| |
| − | Lancaster 90-2, Crash Matuzek realized that oxygen played a key role in
| |
| − | many destructive processes, such as rust and burning. Furthermore, she
| |
| − | discovered that the element was a waist product of the first
| |
| − | inhabitants of earth. To make a statement, Crash and her friend Robyn
| |
| − | declared August 1st Boycott Oxygen Day. Propaganda was created, chiefly
| |
| − | in the form of signs, saying things like "Every day, billions of people
| |
| − | breathe oxygen. Every day, hundreds of thousand of people die. Think
| |
| − | about it." and signed "AP Chem Students for an Anaerobic Tomorrow.
| |
| − | There was no big celebration, but picketing and signs were there. Since
| |
| − | then, the day has lived on with the O2 (subscript 2 - the molecule of
| |
| − | oxygen) in a circle with a line through it painted on the backs of CTY
| |
| − | shirts. The holiday was still confirmed to be around for at least five
| |
| − | years after Crash was gone, making it a part of the CTY Hall of Fame

| |

| − | The last dance of CAR97-1 and the second dance of CAR97-2 were attended by
| |
| − | some well-known characters. Through the efforts of saraht, Guinevere,
| |
| − | and Yours Truly, CTYers were assembled and costumed to look like the
| |
| − | cast from the Rocky Horror Picture Show. The entire cast was present,
| |
| − | as well as many TimeWarpers, and the costumes were remarkably well
| |
| − | done. At both dances, the majority of CTYers gathered around the group
| |
| − | to watch them preform the TimeWarp in true Rocky Horror Stage Show
| |
| − | fashion. The group also stopped traffic on High Street prior to the
| |
| − | first session dance, and were warned not to walk on High Street "for
| |
| − | their own safety" before the second session dance. The overwhelming
| |
| − | final product of this venture cause the cast of the Rocky Horror
| |
| − | Picture Show, CTY Style, to be added to the CTY Hall of Fame.
