Malory College

Located on Sunset Hill, Malory College is a private school started by the eponymous city-founding family in 1869. Though noted for their egalitarian and altruistic acts, the school that bears the Malorys’ name is one of the most exclusive in the city. Malory College requires of its students a rare combination of high intelligence, true talents, exemplary community service, and a healthy bank balance.
Malory’s student body is therefore made of the children of the city’s elite, along with those destined to join them after graduation. Referring to someone’s “Malory College education” is verbal shorthand around Emerald City for having lived a life of wealth and privilege.
Despite the resentment engendered, a degree from Malory College is a true achievement, bestowed only on those who flourish in a demanding, rigorously classical curriculum. Not only can a Malory graduate quote a fitting line from Shakespeare to match almost any occasion, they can translate it into Latin as well, should the need arise.
Malory’s academic environment is dictated by its president Henry Addison’s conservative governing philosophy as well as the practical reality of filling a desired niche. Progressively orientated students are bound for Arcadia, so Malory aims for the tradition-minded. The future scientists are lined up at ECU's gates, so Malory stresses the humanities. Since the budget-minded apply to ECCC, Malory can maintain its “If you have to ask...” tuition rates.
