New teacher, new class
Friday, September 16th, 2005 10:08 amgodinakilt.livejournal.comThe professor strides into an empty classroom, absently and arrogantly flipping his cloak back over one shoulder. When he whirls to face the classroom, his eyes flare. His voice booms out across the room. "I am Camulus, your go- ah, teacher. You may refer to me as 'sir', 'Professor', or 'my lord'. The courses that I will be teaching will be focusing on the mighty civilisation that I ruled that stretched from Asia Minor to the westernmost points of Europe and the British Isles." He pauses, gazing around with a slight sneer on his face. "I will be teaching three courses on the Celts. Here are the syllabi. You may sign up below. I will be accepting students until the first class on Monday."

Vulcan philosophy
Tuesday, September 13th, 2005 12:54 pmson-of-sarek.livejournal.comThe class originally scheduled was, "Ancient Vulcan weapons and modern applications of their uses". However, after reviewing the medical facilities on this campus and finding them woefully inadequate to deal with types of injuries that were sustained during this class at the Klingon Military Academy, decapitation being the most sever, and finding the psychological profile of the students at this campus to be more prone to violence than the Klingon's, live weapons will not be used in the class. The class will now resemble the philosophy class as inspired by Jedi Master Yoda.
Instructor: Spock
Office Hours: By Appointment
Class Meetings: Tuesday/Thursday 1:30-2:30pm
The class curriculum will focus on the academic aspects of training, offering a unique system designed to foster the best qualities in each student. It encompasses the Vulcan philosophy that blends obedience, divergence and separation. The system-like all substantial karate systems- is demanding; its philosophical and ethical teachings help the student endure the hardships and trials of training.
The system embraces the principles such as humility, truth, self-discipline, self-reliance, peace, respect, unselfishness, honor, courage, loyalty and perseverance. To be one with oneself allows oneness with all to be achieved. Knowledge and understanding of self allows knowledge and understanding of others.
Also do not chew gum during class. I will deduct 5% from your grade if you are caught chewing gum during class time. I will also physically remove you form the class room by whatever means are necessary and all violators with be turned over toprincipalconnor.
COURSE REQUIREMENTS:
Written Exercises: There will be three short (2 pages) written exercises asking you to apply a theory we have studied to a concrete case. Written exercises count 70% toward your overall grade.
Class Discussion: Philosophy cannot be passively learned. It requires active engagement, both with the texts and with individuals in the form of discussion. For this reason class participation counts for 30% of your overall grade. In order to get a good participation grade, you must have excellent attendance, do the assigned reading for each class period, and regularly take an active role in class discussions.
Class space is limited to the first 10 people who respond to this post. I will be updating this post and listing people's names as they apply.

Discussion the 1st: When using the non-lethal Vulcan nerve pinch* to incapacitate, why is it unethical to go through your victims pockets and look for loose change?
*Vulcan nerve pinch: A Vulcan technique in which finger pressure is applied to certain nerves at the base of the neck, instantly and nonviolently rendering that individual unconscious. Although the technique appears to work on nearly all humanoid species, and several non-humanoids as well, few non-Vulcan have been able to master the nerve pinch.
[note: I tried, unsuccessfully to teach the nerve pinch to Kirk, but many years later, Data was able to master the technique. If you ask politely I will teach this in class and see if you terrans have any better success than Kirk did.]

QPHY 123 Monday and Wednesday (chronofluid)
'I'm My Own Grandfather?!': Essential Quantum Theory for Beginners

In addition, I will be forming a Performance Arts Club. Auditions will take place next week. No matter what category of performing arts you fall into (Drama, Choir, Dance), the Club will be open to you. I will draw up a charter for the club sometime before auditions next week.
If this is something that may interest you, please reply in the appropriate thread.
Also, I find myself in need of two teaching assistants. Sawyer has volunteered to be one of them. Are you still interested in the position, Sawyer? TAs will get full course credit.
Looking forward to seeing you in my classes.

Monday, September 12th, 2005 01:22 amprincipalconnor.livejournal.comAll right, here's the compiled lists of admin, teachers, and students as of the end of Sunday:
( Current rosters )
I've removed a few names -- teachers who haven't been around and students whose journals have been deleted -- and added everybody who asked to enroll today, as far as I know, with the exception of one character who's still coming as soon as they get an RP journal name to me. (And for the record, no more teachers. Seriously, I think we're good now.)
You should respond to this post if:
-- You enrolled before the previous cutoff or before today's open enrollment ended and you're not on the list.
-- You haven't yet received an invitation to joinfandomhigh. (Everybody check your invites ... I was adding people as I went, so everybody on that list should either have an invite waiting or have already accepted it.)
-- Your character name, RP journal name, or fandom are listed incorrectly.
DO NOT respond to this asking to be added tofandomhighdorms or fandomhigh_ooc if you haven't already been invited to join. jerusalem_s is still working on that, so be patient. Also, for all of the newbies, fandomtownies is our only comm with open enrollment and fandom_lounge is only open to teachers to post in (although others can comment and watch).
Important links for anybody new to the school:

Monday, September 12th, 2005 12:00 ambest-bang-yet.livejournal.comHey kids,
President Beeblebrox here, other wise known as "The best bang since the big one."
As I'm currently outrunning a few guys who feel that borrowing without intention to return intact is somehow punishable by lashing, I decided this would be a keen place to lie low.
I'm opening up registration for my class, "Fashion, Style, and all other things you need to know to be a Generally Hoopy Kid."
You lucky dogs.
I like to keep it wild and surprising, so there's not going to be a syllabus until the first day of class. This class is going to be a once a week deal, that goes down Thursdays at 4pm. Attendance is mandatory, unless you've got some hipper place to be.
Here are a few stipulations.
1. You must join the class with a partner. I can take 16 cats total, so that's eight pairs of partners.
2. You can't join with someone you know. Chat up a stranger, pair up in the comments, just get it done. Think of this as a way to sass out the hoopy from the tragically unhip.
3. Anyone who can float Principal Conner’s phone number my way gets…well, nothing, but it would definitely make you one heck of guy. Or girl. Or android.
EDIT: Registration will stay open until we have 8 pairs, or until the first class starts. Whichever comes first, you know?

Course Description: Uh, this is where I'll teach you all the different kinds of music, like rock and.. well, rock. We'll get a guest in, Professor Beethoven, to do the classical stuff. You'll have to speak up though, he's kinda hard of hearing. You'll also get to listen to some most triumphant recordings from the best bands of all time and you'll learn how to tell the difference between Van Halen, Iron Maiden and Megadeth. This class'll mostly be teaching you little dudes how music isn't just music. It's a lifestyle, dude.
Grade Evaluation: Grades suck, butprincipalconnor said they have to be used. So, uh, dudes, show up (or give me a good excuse for not showing up - you get bonus points for creativity and stuff I haven't heard before) and listen to music and learn and if you know all of the songs on at least one Van Halen album by the end of the class, you're totally getting an A.
Course Text: I'll give out some of my old music magazines in class and will tell you what articles are the most excellent.
Instructor: Ted 'Theodore' Logan
BAND PRACTICE
Course Description: Depending on how many people sign up, you little dudes will split up into groups and make your own band. If you don't know an instrument, that's cool, we can give you the triangle or something, or your band members can teach you how to play bass or something like that. It's not hard. If I can do it, anyone can!
Grade Evaluation: Uh, well, there's team work and then there'll be a Battle of the Bands at the end of the class. You don't have to win to get an A, but you'll get graded on how you perform. Oh, and only enrolled members of the class can perform. You can't bring in someone from outside, even if you did use time travel to get them.
Course Text: None, but if you have your own instrument you can bring it. If not there's plenty of excellent stuff in the music closet.
Instructor: Ted 'Theodore' Logan
Comment to enroll and party on, dudes!

Hey little dudes! My name is Ted 'Theodore' Logan and I'm gonna be your music teacher. Uh, I don't do mornings or Mondays, so here's, like, the time you need to show up. If you don't show up and the reason is a sugar hangover, I *totally* understand.

Martial Arts Syllabus and Times
Saturday, September 10th, 2005 03:39 pmbridekiddo.livejournal.comMy name is Beatrix Kiddo, you may call me Beatrix or Professor Kiddo, I don't mind either. I'm going to be the martial arts instructor here, as I have a lot of experience in the field myself. I will be offering martial arts classes to those students interested, and I just wanted to see how many people were interested and to see what kinds of martial arts you would like to see. So please tell me here. If you want to learn basic self defense or something more advanced, let me know. This is just so I can begin to put together a lesson plan and figure out times for classes.
Thanks,
Beatrix Kiddo

Cyborg Theory Enrollment
Saturday, September 10th, 2005 03:35 pmreplicarter.livejournal.comAttention students of fandomhigh, human and otherwise –
Introduction to Cyborg Theory
Class to be held Monday nights at 7 p.m. to 9 p.m. – chiefly due to the fact that several films will be shown in this class to aid understanding of certain theories.
Course Description: This is an upper division elective course that will address the concepts of artificial intelligence, cyborgs, nano-tech, human-form robots from both a scientific and art (film, television, fine arts, etc) perspective.
Grade Evaluation: This is a pass/fail course. If you miss three classes, you will be put on probation from the class. After five classes missed, you will be allowed to withdraw or be given a failing grade.
This is a lecture/discussion course with a little research and a lot of fun filmsstaring most of us, actually, errr….
Course Text: TBA
Instructor: I am Eighth of my kind; you may refer to me as Dr. Carter or Eighth, as you will. For more information, here's a brief history. Andfandomhigh!RC is completely different (ie. far less slutty) than soapgatesgwun!RC, so don't get any funny ideas! *winks*
I highly recommend this class for all students who have had or will have dealings with artificial intelligence and the like. The best way to understand the enemy is to understand her perspective, eh?
Please comment if you wish to enroll.

Business Class Registration and Sewing Circle Club
Tuesday, September 6th, 2005 08:20 pmmsgilmoredanes.livejournal.comSorry I'm late - I own my own business in Stars Hollow and we had major chaos today. See, this cat got into a guest's room and my assistant, Michel, refused to catch it and... oh... sorry... I sometimes get off on tangents... feel free to stop me if I do.
Okay... official business... since I do have to be at the Dragonfly Inn on weekdays and my classes are electives, they will be offered as evening classes.
Intro to Business
Tuesdays - 6-9
Studying basic business principles and how they apply to every day life.
Starting a Small Business
Thursdays - 6-9
Class will be split into project groups and will start a fake business.
I noticed a lot of other teachers are offering to sponser clubs. I am a really good seamstress if anyone is interested in a sewing circle.

OK gang, here it is
Tuesday, September 6th, 2005 08:49 amprof-cregg.livejournal.comI'm teaching speech and communication. I'll have 3 sections.
Speech 101, Intro to Public Speaking. I strongly suggest that those of you who are less than comfortable speaking in front of other people take this class. There will be no heckling.
Speech 201 Advanced Public Speaking is designed for those of you who don't get nervous, but still sound more like George Bush rather than George Stephanopoulos in front of a crowd.
Speech 301 Interpersonal Communication is more theory based, and will look at how people communicate with one another.
I will not tolerate anything out of the normal. It messes with my zen. So no, you know, psychic powers or crying and begging. Sucking up is ok though.
OK, next. I don't have a syllabus. Show up, do the work, improve, you get an A. Don't show up, don't work, don't improve, get an F. Rarely show up, do half assed work, and suck up...hmm...probably still have to fail you, but I will think fondly of you when you're gone. Is that enough for you?
Just so we're absolutely clear, you'll be doing S-P-E-E-C-H-E-S. Hence, public speaking. You'll be persuading...mostly. You'll have to spin some stuff to. And depending on my mood, I might teach you how to woo, but probably not since you're all far too young and wooing is a very dangerous skill in the wrong hands.
Ok, since we think best in the mornings, 101 is at 8am MWF, 201 is at 9am MTR, and 301 will be daily at 10.
If there's an interest, I am willing to head up a debate club too.
Ok guys, thanks. That's a full lid. I'll let you know if anything else comes up.

tormenting-art.livejournal.comSyllabus for all English courses.
I'm here to teach you how to see the hidden meaning in the English language -- the subtle beauty that lies within the sleek curves of a sibilant or the careful crunch of a well-bitten off syllable. You'll learn how to write clearly and effectively and hopefully even gain the ability to see the subtext that lies within every work that has ever been created.
I, er. I hope you're all ready and willing to experience the full beauty of language in its every aspice.

Now that we know each other, so to speak, feel free to leave any comments or questions below. Assignments are going to be handled as in the real world - unexpectedly and to a deadline.
Complaints of unfairness will get you an automatic F and this is in no way open to interpretation.
With a little luck, you might even learn something.
