In order to find [[Alexander Hamilton]]'s treasure, [[ABC]] has revoked student groups' funding (by engineering campus controversies) to rebuild the orb that once stood atop the [[Sundial]], and kidnapped [[David Helfand]] in order to determine the time for the precise alignment of stars. The groups, represented by the [[French Cultural Society]], [[Postcrypt]], and [[CTV]]'s ''[[The Gates]]'', battle ABC for control of the treasure. It turns up in the Venetian Well outside [[Schermerhorn]], which no one can agree on how to pronounce, but is only work $300. A subplot revolves around a [[Carman]] [[RA]]'s grandfather, who has been evicted from [[Manhattanville]].
