About Us
Hello, and welcome to the Guilford College Zombie Survival Guide. What you'll find on this website is the result of the work of Heather Hayton's English 400 capstone class, fall 2011, entitled “The Quick and the Undead.” This website and its content are the final product of a class-wide project to give people a taste of what we've been studying all semester. We hope you find this entertaining and informative.
In case you hadn't picked up on it yet, the class is all about zombies. Every type of zombie. Even the zombies that people say aren't zombies. From Haiti to Romero to 28 Days Later, we've talked about them all. And we didn't just talk about them for our own amusement. Zombies open up a lot of doors for discussion about our own lives, our societies, our world. Consider some questions:
- How does Night of the Living Dead reflect the social and political anxieties of its historical context?
- Do the zombies in Shaun of the Dead reveal our interpellation in a worker-driven, consumer-based economy?
- Is community still possible or even desirable in the worlds of The Walking Dead or Zombieland?
- What does the popularity of video games like Left 4 Dead or Plants Versus Zombies say about our desires and where we find pleasure?
- Can the zombies in World War Z offer us a new way to look at global politics and its ability to handle crises?
- And, of course, the one that everyone loves to ask, what's the difference between zombies and us?
That's just the beginning. Zombies can show us so much, and can represent a myriad of things. They are ever-present in our current pop culture, and demand our attention. The fact that you're even reading this means you're ready to give them that attention.
So please, explore the site, have some fun, learn some stuff. And if any of what you see here interests you, please take a look at some of our recommended texts — some of them are truly to die for.
Besides, if you start preparing now, you'll be much better off when Patient Zero starts to come down with an illness no one has ever seen before, but everyone has already imagined.

Hello Web Admin, I noticed that your On-Page SEO is is missing a few factors, for one you do not use all three H tags in your post, also I notice that you are not using bold or italics properly in your SEO optimization. On-Page SEO means more now than ever since the new Google update: Panda. No longer are backlinks and simply pinging or sending out a RSS feed the key to getting Google PageRank or Alexa Rankings, You now NEED On-Page SEO. So what is good On-Page SEO?First your keyword must appear in the title.Then it must appear in the URL.You have to optimize your keyword and make sure that it has a nice keyword density of 3-5% in your article with relevant LSI (Latent Semantic Indexing). Then you should spread all H1,H2,H3 tags in your article.Your Keyword should appear in your first paragraph and in the last sentence of the page. You should have relevant usage of Bold and italics of your keyword.There should be one internal link to a page on your blog and you should have one image with an alt tag that has your keyword....wait there's even more Now what if i told you there was a simple Wordpress plugin that does all the On-Page SEO, and automatically for you? That's right AUTOMATICALLY, just watch this 4minute video for more information at. <a href="http://www.SEORankingLinks.us">Seo Plugin</a>
