West Malton UniversityWest Malton University is comprised of individuals dedicated to teaching newcomers to Malton how to stay alive in a city overrun by the living dead. Its faculty, staff, sponsors and students are busy, visible and vocal participants in the life of Grigg Heights, Owsleybank, Molebank & Reganbank. The WMU prides itself in our unwavering support of the local community by healing the wounded, reviving the involuntarily undead, and by maintaining and defending vital resource buildings. Alongside its programme of lectures, classes and informal instruction in the mechanics, strategies, anthropology, psychology and ethics of life in Malton, WMU aims to provide a pleasant shelter for all its visitors, who will be greeted with jokes, a well stocked bar, incessant chatter, lewd poetry readings and the occasional naked twister party.
LocationThe main WMU campus is Shattock Plaza School in Owsleybank. Unless the WMU & it's immediate surroundings are under siege, it will be enterable from the street at all times, so that exhausted survivors, and newcomers who haven't yet learned the art of free-running, can find safety there. Long-term residents and students in need of a quiet place to sleep, study, and work can make their way to Harewood Library next door. MCM takes responsibility for the security of Harewood Library, and maintains its barricades at the highest level. MCM conducts research and holds lively laboratory classes next door in the The Challes Building. Local undead who have not yet succumbed to brain rot will be revived by WMU scientists at the Forshaw Drive, three clicks south of the University. MCM is fortunate to be situated in a suburb rich in resources: there are four hospitals, six NecroTech Buildings, two police stations and three factories in Eastonwood. For those looking to do some weekend shopping, St Simon's Hospital is equidistant from Bale Mall and Caiger Mall. And for those who like a little edge to their nightlife, there are rumours - there are always rumours - that Club Vagg, on the border with Darvall Heights, has opened its doors once more.
Degrees offered
Courses of studyIf you live, you pass: it's as simple as that. Courses offered by MCM include:
MCM LecturesThe lectures at Malton College of Medicine are given by experienced survivors who enjoy working with new people. They are designed to inform, educate and entertain. Questions are invited, practical application encouraged, and tests non-existent. Topics range from elementary instruction for those just arrived in Malton, to discussion of technical and tactical matters, to important aspects of life with MCM (the lecture on the Ignore List, for example, is recommended reading for everyone). Guest lecturers have included Raharu from FANNY, Strayla of The Saints, jorm, prophet of the Militant Order of Barhah, Ottari, Sir KF of the Philosophe Knights, Upper Left Corner, Falcon Talon of Zerg Hunters Unlimited, and the staff of Tikhon Medical. Recordings of all MCM lectures can be found in our library. MCM Medic RunsIt is a vital part of MCM's daily work to provide medical support to the residents of Eastonwood and neighboring suburbs. The faculty have suggested routes for medic runs in the area surrounding St Simon's Hospital that should enable students and guests to make the best use of their AP and first-aid kits. Find out more here. MCM Quarterly ReviewIn May 2010, MCM launched its own journal. It will carry reports of events in Eastonwood and beyond, interviews with Malton celebrities, gossip and advice columns and much more. The first issue of the Malton College of Medicine Quarterly Review can be read here.
