[Announcement] Temporary Professors/Lecturer positions open!

Have you ever want to play a teacher for a class outside of the tri-school curriculum? Have you ever had ideas for short term programs for school age students that you wanted to play out? Awesome!

During the three months of summer playtime, drivers will  be able to apply for short term instructor positions for a student summer program. Experience isn't necessary, however dedication towards keeping the class or seminar moderately active is!

Some examples of seminars and classes could be "Beauty Potions: How to get rid of acne." Or "Dragon care and handling." You can put forth any class that you can think of. Admins will review your application, and approve it based on playability. Quidditch players need not appy because of a separate quidditch based opportunity. If you don't want to teach a class, but want to participate in the summer academy, a career day and employment opportunities will be available for sign up later this week.

To apply for a class or seminar you must;
-Write a brief description of your char (played or npc) including personality, teaching style and credentials.
-Write a brief description of the class
-Write a teaching rp sample

If you have any questions, please pm @Blo S.K.
