Male Slave University is the educational centre for the male slaves in SlaveCity. The building is shaped as a heptagon with seven large, impressive auditoriums which are centred around a central multifunctional space. This model of Male Slave University has a cut-away and reveals the interior of the lecture halls, dormitories and teacher’s lounge. Male Slave University is made to train the slaves for better performance and operates 24/7 in three shifts; 7 hours of study, 7 hours of work on the land or other supportive activities and 7 hours of sleep. The remaining 3 hours can be used for personal care such as eating, washing and relaxing. The Slave University offers room for 1896 students and has 632 places to work, 632 sleeping-accommodations and 124 toilet units linked to an environmental friendly biogas installation.
