This is a small liberal arts based college in North Adams Ma. The resources here suck and it feels like it's in ancient times with the technology. It feels more like a high school than a college. With a population of like not even 2,000 students everyone knows everyone. There is tons of gossip, the sports suck, and best of all you can't even allow more then one person into your dorm. Absolute bullshit, the rules here are pathetic. Also there is only one street off campus you can party it and it's full of townies. Pines are the only people that actually turn up at this school.

When students of a liberal arts college do a 360 degree scan to make sure that someone they know doesn't sneak up on them and eavesdrop on a conversation (read: gossip) about them, since apparently liberal arts colleges are tiny and you're always at risk of someone you don't like running into you
Kayleigh: Did you hear what Ashley did at the frat party last night! Megan: Girl hold up! We go to Oberlin where there's less than 3000 people on campus and everyone knows each other! Do the liberal arts 360 first to make sure no one listens in!
A public magnet high school in Austin, Texas. Commonly abbreviated to "LASA" or "LASA HS" although the latter doesn't really make sense since "Academy High School" is redundant. Used to share a building with LBJ but moved to the former Eastside/Johnston campus to relieve overcrowding. Historically the school is one of the best academically, consistently ranked top 50 in the US. Prospective students must submit an entrance application to demonstrate their prowess. The school boasts high test scores and near perfect rates of graduation and acceptance to colleges. However, there is concern that admin is letting in too many retards after the move to the new building and that the school will become less "elite". The atmosphere is quite sleepy and studious for the most part; no fights or bomb threats unlike every other school in Austin ISD. However, depression is commonplace and sleep deprivation is a flex. It's rare to go a day without hearing "kill myself" multiple times. There is a high percentage of zesty people and other degenerates. The classes are filled with Asians and Indians who carry everyone else. Luckily, the Blacks at this school are chill (all 4 of them). Ironically it is one of the most diverse high schools in the district since many of them are 80%+ Mexican. But despite being a respectably sized 5A school and having such a prestigious (so far) reputation, no one outside of AISD actually knows about it. It is unknown why LASA is so mysterious in the public eye.
