<span class="bbc_u">A.C.E. Campus Grounds</span><br/>Although the A.C.E. Compound was created with the goal of militaristic efficiency, there was enough space allotted to make sure that there were more than just the bare necessities.  While placing the facility in the mountains was a strategic decision due to the lack of any civilian interference, it had the pleasant side effect of including a breathtaking view and generally pleasant weather for a good portion of the year.  This did not go unnoticed as various benches are placed at some of the more scenic locations.  There are also small knolls spread out that S.H.I.E.L.D. couldn't be bothered to level with trees and such around for staff and students to sit down on and enjoy the atmosphere.  Those looking to have a nice stroll around the campus can easily follow the paved walkways and concise signs that make it almost impossible to get lost, despite the sheer size.<br/><br/><span class="bbc_u">The Atrium</span><br/>Although technically directly connected to the Central Building, the Atrium is considered its own separate location.  As the name implies, this area is a large open room without a roof, accessible from both the building itself and from the outside.  Tables, chairs, and various shrubberies are spread throughout, and many off-duty officers like to use the space to take a breather and chat amongst themselves while soaking in the sun and clean mountain air.  Due to the cafeteria being so close, it is not uncommon for people to grab a snack before finding one of the various picnic tables to enjoy their meal as well.<br/><br/><span class="bbc_size" style="font-size: 6pt;">Originally written by Keldia</span><br/><br/>IC tag:<br/><div class="codeheader">Code: <a class="codeoperation" href="javascript:void(0);" onclick="return smfSelectText(this);">[Select]</a></div><pre style="margin: 0; padding: 0;"><code class="bbc_code">[floatleft][img height=200 padding=8]http://placehold.jpg[/img][/floatleft]<br/>[b]Name:[/b] <br/>[b]Alias:[/b] <br/>[b]Dorm Assignment:[/b] <br/>[b]Location:[/b] <br/>[b]Date/Time:[/b] <br/>[b]Tagging:[/b] <br/>[hr] <br/></code></pre>
