The University [Recruiting Teachers] [Admitting Students]

[Han Solo 35]

The University

 

Several posters advertising the University are found around nation capitals.

 

The University is a place of learning, knowledge, discipline, and enlightenment. Here you can pursue your dream career and get a formal education on just about every subject you can imagine! Our job is to connect hardworking students with prestigious teachers and to enlighten the population across Athera. Everyone is welcome to learn, and those qualified enough are invited to teach.

The University is founded upon these basic principles:

 

1) Everyone is at the University to learn. Even I, the Headmaster. The University does not only dabble in a student's education, but it also strives to make everyone more intelligent and knowledgeable, including staff. Here, the teachers can continue or start their own research with the aid of the students. The University is a place of discovery.

 

2) Anyone can receive an education. Respect plays a huge role in the University. We do not turn away students based on race, religion, age, or gender. If you pass the admissions and can pay your set tuition, you are allowed to attend.

 

3) Knowledge is neutral. We do not align ourselves with a certain nation or group. All members from all nations can come and learn, but none will have our support in a conflict, and none shall be harmed by us. We are a non-biased non-profit organization.

What we teach:

 

It all depends on the number of teachers and the collective knowledge we have. We do not have a set in stone curriculum on any subject and allow the teachers of one course to decide on a curriculum together. If we only have one teacher that teaches Alchemy, then we will only teach alchemy. If we have a hundred teachers that teach a everything from Astronomy to Electric Evocation, than we will teach all of those things. We would think it a great disservice to teach something we do not fully understand ourselves.

 

Finances:

 

Attending the University sadly does cost money, however we try to trim it down wherever we can. The University is completely non-profit and the only thing that covers our expenses (paying teachers, purchasing materials, etc) is covered by donations and tuition. The fee for tuition is determined by your admissions exam. Score well, it can be as low as ten mina per elven month. Do poorly, and it can be as high as a thousand mina per elven month. Hardworking pays off at the University, but we also give out scholarships to the most bright students who cannot afford an education. Each year, we set aside money as scholarship funds and award it to the less-wealthy, brighter students. Also, I and the higher-up staff do not get paid at all, aside from lodging and food.

 

Recruiting:

 

If you are interested at teaching at the University, please fill out an application below. Also note that we pay teachers based on our tuition rates for students, so in the beginning, income may be a little slow. You can apply to teach whatever you want, 

 

Admissions:

 

If you would like to be a student and attend the University, please fill out an application below. If you state a profession you want to pursue, but there are no teachers available to teach it, you can take your exam anyways to determine your tuition. Tuition is paid after you start learning and there are no other fees. The University also provides shelter and housing for those who need/desire it.

[Ford 1990]

"This will ******* burn to the ground in no time."

A tan man says.

[Rethai 163]

"Where is this place, anyway?" Baron Jacque d' Praedium would say, chuckling at the flyer.

[moali125 19]

Menithrian would comment "Enlightenment deserves a place to be harboured; an entire nation committed to its cause! Not to split the forces of thought throughout the realm, as they've been forced for centuries! 

 

If the Headmaster may take part in reception with me, I shall be most honoured to have them. I have a proposition for them."

[Devland99 180]

"Should give location"

[Quartzen 13]

Bernd Van Koster raises a brow, and nods. "Nothing bad about education."

Austentine smiles at the news of a student application. He approves it and starts drafting an admissions exam. Because of her economic background, he sees fit to give her a scholarship for her first semester and the fact that she is the first student applying.

RP-
Character Name: Berilac Goldworthy, commonly 'Longshanks'.
Age: Fourty three.
Race/Gender: Halfling/Male/In your dreams (soz)
What you would like to teach: While I imagine that most of the first days of it's existence, University might be more willing in hiring professors of arcane studies, I still would wish to provide help on matters of hexology and history. Can also deal with psychology, as vastly /not/ advanced as it is.
Experience on Subject: Fourteen years worth of research on hexology. Professional interest in history of Athera, and psychology of Descendants' races. Still willing to learn more, just as much as to pass available knowledge on.
Willing to prepare a demonstration (Y/N): Yes in all of the three above. Hexological one might be quirky. Probably could necessitate an available body, for a vivisection. Per ardua ad astra, eh?
Current Occupation (if one): Still operating minister of Truth in Oren's mesa colony, the Sylverport, with a fair notion of free time that can be spent for the sakes of aiding University.
