Nobody knows who the dead student is, or whether they're a student at all. They were dressed in the typical garb of a youngster, but apparently the face was so disfigured identification was impossible. Everybody at MUAM knows the 'witness' was a young man named Seth Willingate, a quiet lad and, like Arabella herself, something of a fringe character, favouring unorthodox company and known to like 'negro jazz', a music often referred to as rythm and blues, as well as being an active participant in the university's pro-active anti-war movement SAW (Students Against the War). The fashion at MUAM right now is for big band, swing and crooning, a white American translation of the much more subtle African American style. As a result, jazz is considered to be pretty 'out there' and black jazz is frowned upon by most of the trendier fraternities. Anti-war movements are equally unpopular given the current levels of common denominator patriotism. Many of the more gung ho students, especially the football and  baseball jocks, can't wait to 'join up' and 'kick Hitler's ass'. Seth Willingate was accordingly given a wide berth by the popular crowd and seemed to Arabella to spend most of his time alone. Whatever Seth saw in the toilet block of the science annex, it evidently terrified the life out of him. By all accounts 'wierd Seth' has lost his marbles and found a new home in the mysterious confines of Arkham Asylum, a place surrounded in more myth and rumour than the university itself.[/SBLOCK]</blockquote>
