Meyer's College

Meyer's College, a Div. of Southeastern University (Part 01)

By: The Cape Cod Beach Bum

AN INTRODUCTION

This story takes place on the campus of Meyer's College, a division of Southeastern University. It is named in honor of Jacob Meyer, without whose endowment and foresight, the College would not even exist. Dr. Meyer was a member of the original Masters and Johnson sexual research team in the mid 20th Century.

The co-founders of the College are Dr Elizabeth Finch-Walker, MD,OB/Gyn and Sexual Dysfunction; her husband Dr Carl Walker, MD, Psychiatry; and Dr Amy Thompson, MD, Psychiatry.

Both Beth and Carl were original class members, of the first course given at Southeastern University in the field of Human Sexuality, HS-201. It was taught by their colleague, and College co-founder, Dr Amy Thompson, MD. Other classmates of theirs are also Professors at Meyer's, and Southeastern University, and will be introduced as the story unfolds.

The setting is a recently vacated and renovated mansion on a hill, overlooking the main section of the Southeastern University campus. It formally housed the Alpha Omega fraternity, and became available due to declining interest in fraternity life at the end of the 20th Century. The building is two stories, approximately square in plan, with twelve bedrooms on the 2nd floor around the building's perimeter, surrounding two staircases and a communal bath-shower room in the core. Each bedroom is designed to house two occupants. The 1st floor consists of a kitchen, a community dining room, 2 quiet study rooms, a recreation/TV room, a gymnasium, and office/treatment rooms for the Staff. An Olympic sized swimming pool in the rear garden rounds out the facility.

We now pickup the story in progress. The group is assembled in the recreation/TV room, Doctors Walker and Dr Thompson have just finished introducing themselves, and given their credentials to the assembled students. Carl is speaking.

"We would like to take this opportunity to welcome you, the initial class here at Meyer College. We realize that most of you are wondering what you are doing here, and why you are a separate entity, yet a part of Southeastern University."

"Eight short years ago, Southeastern undertook the challenge of turning out the highest trained group of graduates in the field of Human Sexuality. It began by offering one of the first, and certainly the most trailblazing of courses ever offered in the field, Human Sexuality, HS-201."

"Beth and I were both members of that class."

"It was taught by Dr. Thompson."
