back in the days before people readily donated their bodies to science, a large group of medical students was expected to gather around a single cadaver while the instructor demonstrated how an autopsy was carried out. this was a huge pain in the ass and didn't offer the students any hands-on experience, so for a while there, they were expected to show up to class with their own cadaver. these were illegally obtained through grave robbing and such, so the schooling had to be done underground and kept secret.
