Revision as of 21:39, 11 August 2006
Contents
Location
- Dickinson College, Carlisle, Pennsylvania
Carlisle, Pennsylvania is a pleasant town about 20-30 mins. from Harrisburg. The site is notorious among its regulars for the town's phsycotic drivers.
Campus
The Campus of Dickinson College is a stately place dating from the 1700s with plenty of open space and trees. Facilities are pretty nice, with air conditioning in all rooms, and the HUB (the central meeting place) contains two stores: The Devil's Den convenience store and a bookshop.
Dorms
- Referred to as Quads 1-10, Super Quad, Uber Quad, and Malcolm (really far away and last used Session I of '06)
- Quad Six=Quad Sex
- Quads Four and Five= superquad (boys only as of '06 )
- Malcom (guys only) is know for its basement ("no one can hear you scream in Malcom basement"), which often floods and has mice. Not used for session II, 2006
- KW - Kisner-Woodward Building. (Kay-Dubbs) The guidance, nurse, and administrative offices are located here, but there are also four girls' halls. Most of the dorms in KW are singles.
- UBER QUAD! Bigger and better than super quad....a girls-only dorm, that is very similar to super quad, only with an additional, lingering, smell that cannot be identified <from the flooding of upper quad, session 1-Schuyler). It contains EDDIE, the janitor with a TV in his glorious janitor's office and posters of scanitly clad women on his wall. He tends to walk down the hall way at 7 in the morning, right when everyone is showering.
-It should also be noted that the lounge of SUPERQUAD (boys dorm) can see clear down the hallway of UBERQUAD (girls dorm). Awkward. The girls of Uber Quad have been asked not to interact with said boys... Bummer...
Outside of Campus
- Massey's, a great custard stand, is just down the block and some halls go there occasionally (usually during Meet-Market). Also after camp's over and CTYers haven't been picked up yet (and rarely before camp starts and before RAs start caring), they go here.
- Sometimes people order out, usually from Papa John's Pizza.

Traditions
- Meet Market, basically: social time after study hall.
- HUB potato obsessions (The Hub is infamous for serving at least one potato-based dish with EVERY meal)...for short time afterward EVERYONE goes through "fried potato product" withdrawal
- Betty Negley. "Hel-lo! ::swipes card:: Thank-you!" ((what's especially funny is hearing her try to fit "good morning" into two syllables)). Betty gets extremely, mind-bendinly hulk angry when kids try to sneak out food for passion friut. A sight to behold. Betty's wrath can also be awakened when she sees people playing with their food (i.e. putting tea leaves in milk.)My hall in Session 1 '06 knows this firsthand. If you are nice enough, she might let you take a picture with her...
- Kill Murray/Save Murray - the only game in which you can use "Dick Cheney" and "Good thing his helmet runs on hamster-power" in the same sentence
- Most RAs being annoying at end of Meet-Market: At the end of every Meet-Market, the RA's are called to the alley. They put their hands on top of each other's, and then they break up shouting "Dorm Time!" telling CTYers to go back to their dorms.
