Freshman Orientation Discovers Allen Hall

Picture of Bellarmine Campus from 2001, showing believed location of Allen Hall.

At this summer's Freshman Orientation, a group of freshmen and their tour guides got very lost during their orientation, wandering far beyond the well-travelled heartlands of the campus, and deep into the uncharted hinterlands of the school's distant territories. There, they stumbled upon a mysterious building that resembled a large shed. The upperclassmen with the group were just as baffled by this sight as the freshmen, but cautiously entered the building in an attempt to discover its purpose. Inside, they encountered a primitive society of outlandish people, who seemed ill-disposed to communicate with outsiders. In fact, one eyewitness attests that, "the savages seemed to communicate mostly through making strange noises with the numerous instruments scattered throughout the building."

Undeterred by the peculiar, yet seemingly peaceful natives, the group continued to explore the building. From assorted artifacts that the explorers found, they realized that the building that they had stumbled upon was in fact the fabled Allen Hall. Previously known only in folklore, Allen Hall fell was built as part of the Campus Plan of 1981, but fell out of history in 2001 when the entire building moved from its old location. In light of its rediscovery, experts propose that since then, the lack of contact with the outside world has caused the hall's inhabitants to develop an isolated and bizarre society, not unlike that of Canada.

The Administration is still debating the best course of action in light of this new discovery, but plans to recolonize the building are likely out of the question due to expense, and the unlikeliness of any treasure being found in the building.
