CTY again. Whee.
The cafeteria is once again accessible. It has indeed been remodeled, though it's too soon to tell if the quality has improved. It sure is a lot glitzier.
The renovations have hit Weis and North Ben this year. Both the staff and the main office have been moved to Thomas. Who else thinks this is a bad idea? I mean, the students have to be allowed into the main office. All that separates them from our living space is a handful of signs saying "Students not allowed past this door!" Does Thomas have any common space? Any public lounges? Staff social life is gonna take a big hit. Oh, and this year I get a single. In Thomas. There is an overabundance of male instructors this year, and we are in fact using every room (instead of just 2 out of 3 rooms in a suite) but I figure that I got one of the singles because I'm "just" a co-instructor. Who is in his 8th year of working at CTY, but hey. I'll figure out how to live in this room eventually.
We've had a nearly complete administrative overhaul. The only returning admins this year are Ron (Academic Dean) and Liz (Residential Dean). I believe 2 of the 4 SRAs are new to Lancaster (I may be wrong on one of them, but Steven Chen doesn't ring a bell to me). Fairly high staff turnover too. I am the second-seniormost academic staffer, after Stepper. I don't feel that old.
My co-instructor (Brooke Orosz, aka Birdie) and I are moving along pretty well. I think THEO will do just fine.
Nothing more to say, for now.
