Noah Whateley (one of the uncorrupted Whateleys[1]) founded Whateley Academy in 1878. There's a statue of him in the middle of the Quad. This is his total involvement in the story to date. The statue appears in a number of stories. It's a statue with no particular interesting properties, other than presumably attracting pigeons.
- This is the statue of Noah Whateley, the man who founded this school back in 1878. They only put this thing up because a school is supposed to have a statue of its revered founder. Actually, the school that he founded was mediocre at best- the highest that any graduate of the original school ever reached was a Congressman for Vermont. Anyway, after about eighty years of producing complete non-entities, the original Whateley Academy shut down and was foreclosed on by the bank. Then it was bought by a group of mutant superheroes in 1966, because they wanted a remote place to train emergent mutants in how to use their powers. They kept the name, mostly so that the school would appear to have a long and presumably illustrious history.[2]
His ghost is still hanging around the school. Jimmy T talks to him sometimes. [3]
