Adam Roush
Adam Roush is an extremely well-known and well-loved RA at Lancaster. Having gone to eight sessions of CTY as a student and eight as an RA, and expressing a desire to become a TA in the future, Adam may never leave. As of 2008, Adam has received a change of position and is now an SRA! His reign has begun.
Adam is rarely referred to as Adam Roach and a few other similarly "creative" nick names. Normally he is referred to as Adam, Roush, or Adam Roush, and he will be referred to thusly in this article.
He is best known as the RA of First Dietz, a one-year hall in 2004 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.
Roush is renowned for his prowess in the fields of banjo (as well as many other instruments, most with strings) and MC-ing, specifically in comparison to his evil, evil foil, the Student Talent Show MC. Adam also has mystical and superhuman powers, kind of like Chuck Norris, to whom he is often compared. Indeed, at the Second Friday dance at 06.2, he broke up a group of girls who were inappropriately dancing (a.k.a. grinding train)... with his mind. He is also well-known for preemptive 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.
The man is intense.

He was also one of the inventors of Greg Ball, a game played a few times in 2005.1 involving the yellow ball known as "Greg" and his cane.
In 2006.1, Adam also introduced his hall, on Fourth Thomas, to the Eurovision 2006 contest via YouTube videos displayed on his laptop. The song "Hard Rock Hallelujah" by the Finnish band Lordi became a favorite; at that session's Karaoke Night, he, along with several of his students, created masks and imaginary musical instruments and performed the song in front of the unsuspecting crowd. Some of the students on the hall had their musical tastes forever changed by that incident.
In one activity (Pretentious Coffee House) Greg wrote a poem:
- What is pretentious?
- Adam Roush
Adam's AIM sn is VoodoochildHDX. This information has been here for a good amount of time and he has not yet objected.
