Elan Q/A
java.gurl:
More ppl used to come around but they have all moved on for the time being. Ppl who have been at Elan in the last 6 years or so interest me too. I would like to see how the place has changed. I know they consolidated E7 & E8 due to low intake numbers. I know they got rid of "The Ring" (I heard that through a rumor...) Tis true?
I wonder how it actually does differ now VS the 1991-1994 era.
I know they took their sports teams to a new level & Elan competes against normal schools in the area & has been recognized as a "normal" ::OMG:: school itself.
What else? Do they now offer a Vegetarian & Kosher menu? God knows we asked for one when I was there.
We would get pasta dishes loaded with animal flesh & had nothing to eat ourselves & were told to pick the meat out of the pasta dish. It has been saturated with meat juices how is that veggie or Kosher? One had to literally BEG to make toast or PB&J when such a meal was served. We were told to eat salad, that's great but we needed a protein replacement especially at the ages we were. We were either becoming men or women & needed to eat accordingly. If u were not a high posistion & u asked for toast or PB&J u were treated like it was a big fucking priveledge to be allowed to eat toasted bread with PB on it!
How hard would it of been to slop pasta without meat on another plate for us few veggies/Kosher kids?
God knows enough was paid to Elan on behalf of us to do that ONE tiny tiny thing...
That's my rant about Elan.
Oh well.
I am alive & pretty happy in life today as we speak so I can easily come here & say my piece & leave & go on as usual.
There are things that will remind me of Elan or something that happened there. But I do not allow it to control my being.
When I was the ripe old mature age of 18 I did :cry:
Have a great one peeps!

You will be missed & were a great talent & did so much for the needy kids of Ct. & other places...Luved your products BTW...Met you in Stew Leonards too when your products first came out & Stewies was the only place hawking your wares. My Dad loved meeting you too..My Aunts loved your blue eyes ::)

Did you ever see anyone sent to the ring over not wanting to eat the food due to their principles?

I was sent to Elan from February 4th of my junior year in highschool, to late october of my freshman year in college. The schools traditions are based on severe verbal abuse,whereby a student who does not comply with the stringent rules is routinely verbally abused in an attempt to break his spirit and make him submit. I would strongly advise against anyone sending their child there, even years after finally leaving, it is hard to imagine that i survived such a soul crushing prison. I lost two years of my life in that cold hellhole off of number 5 road, and I hope that no one else has to share the same fate.
