JWheaton:

If you are looking for some local (i.e. Dewey Street) short term rentals there are a number available. English is not the language of choice... second or third at best.

A particularly attractive rental may be available at the house across the street (known locally as the "Animal House") which caters to Central CT. State College students. At the end of the fall semester a few vacancies usually open up. The social schedule is rigorous I understand, with weekend events going from dusk to dawn.

A story about one such weekend event comes to mind. Teddy was working late one night in the ERA paint booth while a party raged across the street. When he finished, he came out (still garbed from head to toe in his white painter's outfit) to find that a young couple had decided to utilize the picnic table in the shop parking lot as the site for the "ultimate amorous encounter". As the couple "rounded third and were galloping for home" Teddy stepped up to advise that he was "condom man" and asked if they were practicing "safe sex."

...word is that they apparently made it home safely.
