Anthrocon 2024: Full Schedule

4:00pm EDT

SCP Orientation

"Welcome to the team! So today is your first day at the SCP foundation? Trainees will join Dr. Groening (Puzz) for your initial introduction to the SCP foundation. The foundation's mission statement is to Secure, Contain, and Protect anomalous items, ideas, and lifeforms.

Often the only thing that protects the non-anomalous from the anomalous (and vice-versa) is a lack of knowledge, so secrecy is of utmost importance!

We will discuss the mission of the SCP foundation, discuss notable anomalies, and do our best to keep as many of our trainees as possible safe and from losing all threads of sanity in the process.

Amnesties will be provided for trainees who wish to leave the program."
