University Of Antarctica.
The University of Antarctica, Antarctica (U of A, U of AA, AAA, or simply "Thankgodshelter", as it is referred to by visitors) was founded in 2008 about 120 miles south-west of the northern-east maritime coast of the Antarctic Ocean. U of AA is globally recognized for maintaining the ironic status of being both the continent's newest and oldest university.
Initially, the U of AA intended to focus exclusively upon the studies of dentistry, music therapy, and agriculture due to its thriving local demand, but the school has since then changed its disciplines and concentrations towards hunting and gathering, medicine, ice sculpting, and hockey.
The Antarctic Board of Education recently awarded U of AA as a pioneering iceship campus, as it fills the gap between the continent's absent primary educational system and the commercial empire
