Blockly: Describes the frequency with which many CC events occur on the Block Plan. May be modified with once, twice, etc.

Chas: Nickname for the statue of Charles Leaming Tutt, Jr., Tutt Library’s namesake. During the library renovation, Chas is taking a much-deserved vacation at the library’s new Creekside storage facility.

The Fishbowl: The glass-enclosed study space and lecture hall attached to Olin Hall.

Fourth Week: The last three days of each block, equivalent to finals week at semester schools.

Rasty’s: Shorthand for Rastall Café, CC’s largest dining hall.

Block crush: Relationship that is formed with a particular person in a student’s current class…but only for one block.

Mod Pod: The temporary modular building behind Palmer Hall that houses the Writing Center and provides extra space during the library renovation.

T.W.I.T.: Although this could be perceived as an insult, at CC it stands for Theatre Workshop Improv Troupe, a group of students who are not twits, but are very talented!

Llama: No, not the animal, but an abbreviation for “Llamapalooza,” the annual student-organized all-campus music festival held during Block 8.

Flair: All-purpose costumes for student parties, including neon spandex, sequins, feather boas, etc.; costume accessories.
