I would also throw in a School of Xen'Drik History, but beyond that, i am stumped. No ideas on the L of K's 8 colleges

This includes Daelkyr ruins and artifacts, the fragments of history from the age of demons, information on the quori, etc. One of my current characters learned about navigation, history and the like at Morgrave prior to his life at sea. (So, astro-navigation & history together... liberal arts?) I imagine that most of the programs offered by modern universities would exist, simply replace "tech" based classes with similarly focused magical focus. You just have to keep in mind that these two schools wouldn't focus on magic to nearly the same extent as the college in Aundair or others, nor would they tread to far into the subjects controlled by the dragonmarked houses.
Ricohard_Draconis 01-10-05, 12:01 PM	Colleges would probably be named after important benefactors/founders of the university or relate to a religion or other organisation. other departments could include school of modern history (post galifar) can;t think of any others of the top of my head

Peter the Hegemon 01-10-05, 03:16 PM	I had always imagined the colleges of the Library of Korranberg to be more akin to the college system that Cambridge/Oxford use, where each "college" contains students (as a dormitory), but also classrooms and professors (or if you like the different Houses in the Harry Potter books). :) In that case, each college would just have name (from a saint or other person or position) and a reputation (the snooty gnomes go here, the technological gnomes go here). Though from reading the Library entry in Chapter 8 of the ECS, it seems as though "each college seeks to advance a particular field of study" so I guess the above is wrongly thought. Oh well. :( At my university, we have the following colleges: *College of Agriculture and Life Sciences *College of Architecture *College of Education and Human Development *College of Geosciences *College of Liberal Arts *College of Science *College of Veterinary Medicine *Dwight Look College of Engineering *George Bush School of Government and Public Service *Mays Business School If we know that Morgrave has a School of Pre-Galifar Studies, then I would say that it's actually a Khorvairian-only college, unless you take Pre-Galifar to just mean the time period, which I kind of don't like. But oh well.
