The end is near for the students at the Richard Stockton College of New Jersey.  A zombie apocalypse has infected the campus, leaving students to fend for themselves. However, this apocalypse is not real and just for fun. This week-long simulation of a zombie apocalypse has students equipped with Nerf guns and sock-grenades to fend off the zombie hordes. All participants must wear a green band around their arm indicating they are not infected. If they are infected they must wear a green band around their head. There are over 150 students participating in this event which makes the battle between the living and the living dead that more intense.

Students had to register online to participate in this event. However, there are some rogue participants joining in the fun. Also with this event, students who are labeled as “humans” must partake in nightly missions to ensure their survival. Some of these missions include scavenging for food and other supplies. The missions run pretty late from 8 pm to possibly 12 am. The zombie craze is spreading rather rapidly from all of the recent movies and television shows. If one has been “infected” by this craze, this Stockton event is the anecdote.  So grab your friends, your family, some Nerf bullets and socks, and prepare yourself for the Stockton zombie apocalypse.
