welcome
Power. Fame. Wealth. Fulfillment. This is what the current students of the J. G. Finnigan Academy for the Intellectually Gifted Teen strive for. And as any school, there is romance and gossip flying about, as each suit chooses a king, a queen, and several jacks based on their popularity and how they exemplify the qualities of their suit. There is an unwritten law understood by each suit that the royalty of each suit are not to be messed with, even by kings and queens of other suits. But how much longer can the royalties of each suit respect each other? How long will it be until the unwritten law is broken?

Dormitories
These are the nicest dorms of the campus, set up in three-story eight-person houses. There are four people to each of the top two floors, and each person gets a single with a bathroom. The first floor is divided between a kitchen and a living room. The basement has a washer and dryer, as well as ample storage space.

Music Center
They say that geniuses do well with music, and so the Spades get a gorgeous music center with a performance stage with a concert-grand piano, several practice rooms with sound-proof walls (each with their own well-tuned upright piano), and even a recording studio.

State House
A beautiful little one-story house with two rooms (not counting bathrooms and the kitchen)- a beautiful five-star-restaurant-style dining room complete with a chandelier and elegant wooden furniture and a large front room with sofas and love seats used for teas, pushed to the outside for small ball-type parties. The house has a front porch-like area which leads out onto the expansive lawns.

Dormitories
Not as nice as the Spades dorms, but still rather nice. They're all in one building, but still in suites of four singles, each suite sharing a bathroom. Each floor has four suites, a small kitchen, and a lounge complete with a T.V.

Organic Eatery
A fairly nice cafeteria, as far as cafeterias go, with high-quality food (but not quite at the level of the Rose Room or the Red Carpet Lounge). There are a wide range of options, including many choices for vegetarians and vegans, and it prides itself on its 100% organic food.

Center for the Committee on Student Life
The meeting place for the student group that works on the living situations of students. There's supposed to be equal representation from each suit, but the spades refuse to participate, and outside of the one main representative of each suit it's mostly run by diamonds.

Dance Studio
Not as well-funded as the Music Center or the Theatre program, but it's still rather high-end. It has several dance rooms with mirrored walls and bars around the walls, each with a killer stereo system, and the bottom floor holds a small auditorium with a rather large stage to rehearse full dances when the theatre is taken. The main problem is that if the music is played too loud, it leaks into other rooms.

Dormitories
As far as dorms go here, these are the worst, though honestly they're nicer than most schools' dorms. They're formatted like typical dorm buildings, with a mixture of singles and doubles on each floor and a floorwide bathroom and several washing machines down in the basement. The floors alternate between a kitchenette and a lounge.

It's a typical cafeteria as format goes, with the worst food on campus, but it's still a great many steps above public school food, with a cereal bar and fresh pastries for breakfast and a salad bar, a sandwich bar, a pasta bar, pizza, and a main course for lunch and dinner.

Art Studio
It has more funding than the dance program but less than the others. It has several studios with materials for an insanely wide variety of visual arts media. There's even a small stereo in each art studio. The only problem is that the walls don't keep sound out very well, which can be very distracting to some artists.
