A Little More Logic Mystery Cache

This cache has been archived.

kablooey: 15:25. Professor Log Cabin is no longer here and his replacements are of a decidedly different era (much less aesthetic in my opinion). Anyway, I'll archive this one and see whether I can track down the Professor for a new version.

Geocache Description:

The posted coordinates are incomplete.
You must solve the following logic puzzle to determine the final coordinates of this microcache.

Four teachers at San Francisco Syrup University each are teaching a different class beginning at a different morning hour.

  • The Scrambled Eggs class starts earlier than Mrs. Butterworth's class, but later than the Pancake class.
  • Betty Crocker's class meets in a higher room number than the earliest class, but in a lower room number than the 8 o'clock class.
  • The Pancake class meets in a room whose number is divisible by 11.
  • The Waffles and French Toast classes meet in the same room, whose two digits add up to half of the sum of the digits of the 8 o'clock class.
  • Aunt Jemima is not teaching Scrambled Eggs.
  • The earliest class starts two hours before Hungry Jack's class begins.
  • All room numbers on the campus end in 3, and the highest room number is 63.

The cache is a 35mm film canister hidden at N 37° 43.[ABC+3] W 122° 28.[DEF-6], where A is the hour of Aunt Jemima's class, BC is the room of Aunt Jemima's class, D is the hour of Mrs. Butterworth's class, and EF is the room where Mrs. Butterworth's class is held.

Thanks to fizzymagic for verifying the solvability of the puzzle.
