Virgin Martyrs, University of - world renown CruxForums institution of higher learning, located somewhere in Missouri, we think. Or is it in a blue state? Who knows? Famous for its grassy quad, located at the very center of campus, upon which at certain times of the academic year wayward coeds along with junior faculty given to overspending their research budgets are stripped naked and paraded about, and then whipped or caned … in some extreme cases even hanged or crucified … before and for the enjoyment of the institution’s assembled student body and learned faculty
