Midnight City University (abbreviated as MCU) is a public university in the Los Angeles District of Midnight City. It was previously known as the University of California, Los Angeles prior to the end of the Governments Age.
Background[]
Origins[]
The University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) was founded on May 23rd, 1919. Following the end of the Governments Age, the university was renamed to Midnight City University after the eponymous city state was established within the former US state of California.[1]
Atlas Program[]
In 2130, Atlas International and the Midnight City University administration launched the Atlas Graduate Sponsorship Program to give graduates an opportunity to work for Atlas following discussions that started in 2129.
After graduating from high school, Melissa Anders, Samantha Reed and Renee Lynch all attended Midnight City University, the latter two becoming roommates. Each of the three women would pursue different majors, but would nonetheless each accept an Atlas scholarship after graduating.[1]
At Techno Tower, Samantha keeps her medical degree bearing the school's logo framed in her office.[2]
Organization[]
After the University of California, Los Angeles ceased to exist and became the Midnight City University, it would shut down operations to allow its administration to discuss and decide upon its future as the MCU, and to integrate any new developments into its agenda and work policies.
With the financial support of the city's megacorporation Midnight Enterprises, the university's land had increased in size and constructed several more student housing facilities to accommodate the anticipated increase in student applications. However, not only did this warm the accounts of Midnight Enterprises, but paved the way for its eventual bankruptcy and its selling ownership over to Atlas International in 2128.
