COLLABORATION(?): POST-SECONDARY INSTITUTIONS

[quinning]

• Does your character want to go to wizardy university/college/academy after Gooseberry?
• Did your senior character apply to post-secondary training programs? (ex. Auror or Healer training, Potions degrees, Magizoology diplomas, etc.)

COME COLLABORATE!
(if you want to!)

During downtime a few of us discussed Healer training programs (where they might be, when acceptances come out, blah blah blah). We made a Google Doc but never really took it anywhere, and last night I went back and made the doc into a monster. I'm giving everyone access to said doc, and I have two ~hopes~ for what it can BE and DO for ME and YOU:

1. Provide a list of established IC post-secondary programs/schools we've made up
2. Help flesh out IC discussions about where seniors are torn between moving to, etc.

AS WITH ALL MY HARE-BRAINED GOOSEBERRY PROJECTS, THIS IS BY NO MEANS SOMETHING ANYONE HAS TO USE, REFER TO, OR PARTICIPATE IN. Do your own thing! Ignore this post if you want! It's totally cool~

OK. SO. I took the original doc and made up 12 Healer training programs in Canada and the USA based loosely on real med schools. Most of them are part of larger wizarding schools that are affiliated with Muggle colleges. "Affiliated" might mean historically (read: loosely) or that the maj and nomaj programs have some actual partnership.

Right now it's only got Healing programs because that's how it started, but the document is not exclusive to Healing! It's for any post-Gooseberry program and/or school! This includes but is not limited to programs for: Aurors, Healers, Potioneers, Magizoologists, Artificists, and Curse-Breakers.

• If you made up a program and/or school that characters can refer to IC, add it to the doc! This link takes you to the editable version of the Google Document.
• If you want to brainstorm some programs for your character(s) to discuss, feel free to do so in the comments!
• I'm not going through the comments to add new schools/etc., so if you come up with something and you want it added you've got to do it yourself ♥

Hopefully I made this more or less clear. :| I have no idea because my brain's a jumble today. If there's anything I can clear up, just ask!!!

& Here's a sample of what the document looks like right now:

(FYI: as of writing this edit, the comments have discussions about aurors, healers, pro quidditch, politics, and general academics.)

Yesss this is how I've always thought! But I went to look at the wikia to see if I had been possibly making things up and there's something about a Magical Law Enforcement Patrol and said the hitwizards were a specialized force and It's all so confusing.

This is the first time in my entire life I am reading about most of this and I don't know who is making stuff up and oh god.
