ATTN: Former Alchemy Students Given that there has been a smaller pool of interest for Alchemy and Transformative Theory and our collective experiences at the end of last term, I have decided to open up a possible course on medicinal potioncrafting and other like-minded subjects in tandem with the lecture and laboratory work I'm holding with MAG-T 261. Should any of you qualify for this course and have any interest, please contact me as soon as possible so that it may be processed by the registrar. If there is only a handful of interested students, please register under the label "MAG-X 300: INDEPENDENT STUDIES -- T. ENDISCHEE" instead.
ATTN: Current Members of the Art Society We'll be having call-outs for the first year members during the second week of class, so I am requesting that all second and third year members interested in positions of leadership meet in my office on Friday, 5 February to discuss recruitment and interest in the year's projects.
To those who are, for whatever reason, departing from Neopolis proper: forgive my paraphrasing of a wiser man than I, but good day and good luck. |

It seems as if all papers are turned in for the whole, so this is only to serve as a reminder to Ritualistic Magics students that the spirit walk will be this Friday, barring weather or sudden emergency. If so, we shall postpone to Saturday -- but, given the holiday, one would hope that we'll be bereft of such complications. |

A few reminders to students prior to registration:
- Advanced Alchemy will not be offered this semester due to lack of interest. Apologies for students in MAG-T 261 who expressed interest in advanced alchemic instruction in the course evaluations for the inconvenience.
- Students planning to enroll in its replacement, MAG-R 300: Ritualistic Magics of the World, should make sure that their International Certificates of Responsible Consumption and Intoxication are on file on or before FRIDAY, 16 OCTOBER 2009. All students who have graduated from a Neopolis Consolidated School Corporation high school should automatically have this on his or her file and most transfer students should have gone through the ICRCI training during orientation last spring, but if you think that you do not have your certificate on file, please e-mail myself and your Dean of Faculty immediately. If your certificate has been revoked for any reason, you will not be allowed to take the course.
Enjoy the rest of your break, as small as it may be by this point. |

ATTN: HISTORY OF ART AND ADV. TRANSFORMATIVE THEORY STUDENTS -- Your examinations and papers are graded and in what is left of my dropbox outside of my office. If you have any questions over your marks, please contact me at tendischee@neopolis.edu and I will get back to you within reasonable time over our break. Otherwise, I hope you recuperate well.
ATTN: ACADEMY POPULATION AT LARGE -- a) Thank you for leaving the paint grinder untouched in my office during your zombie-induced madness, even if a great deal of other nonsense is destroyed. Although many of the prints were from an old mentor Many of the things were mostly of sentimental value, but the grinder is made of Atlantean salt quartz and is, among other things, very irreplaceable. b) If you need a note of excuse for your records, please see me as soon as convenient for you. I will either be in my office or the medical wing, although if in a rush/I seem to be unavailable, a copy via network can be made available. |

A reminder to Advanced Transformative Theory students that all projects will be presented in-class next Monday. Many of your proposals, although promising, also look to be designed as topics that would be very time-intensive in terms of discussion. As such, I've decided to move the usual final study session to this Sunday, which ensures that it doesn't interfere with possible plans with the play and the like. It has been encouraging to read that others have been making impromptu study groups in this class, but should anyone have any questions as to the format of the examination or the final project rubric, please come to the weekend session.
Both History of Art courses will not have any change to their respective schedules, but this is yet another encouragement for all assembled students to utilize resources such as our in-house writing assistance center or Purdue University's Online Writing Laboratory in order to ensure that your work is legible at its best. Many of the proposals submitted promise to be good work, so it would be a disappointment to have this marred by insufficient planning or last-minute sessions of stress-writing.
To the cast of West Side Story: continue to break a leg; you did so last evening admirably. As for the rest of the campus: good luck on making it to the end of your second trimester. |

( WARDED TO: Dr. Z. Odd; although an alarmed ward, is set to increase in volume in very small increments throughout the day, culminating in the loud and clear ringing of bells when it expires, roughly around midnight PST. )
( WARDED TO: Dr. J. Carrick; also comes with no alarm whatsoever. )
Everyone in History of Art and Adv. Transformative Theory gave me quite the pleasant surprise this week; despite my slapdash notice at canceling lecture, I found that there was no late timestamps on the chapter summaries. Although I can hardly give you anything more than academic gratitude and the insistence that this will, in fact, help instead of hinder your further education, the sentiment is there nevertheless.
However: yesterday's lecture, combined with many of the phrasings in the summaries of the readings, has led me to (correctly) believe that my absence was very much a hindrance for many students in Adv. Transformative Theory. Understandably, not getting a proper footing in the beginning aspects of conjuring illusions will hamper you in the ending stages of our course; as such, if there is still a general sentiment of shaky footing by next Wednesday, then next Friday afternoon shall serve as an impromptu study session for more field work on the topic. As in my other study sessions, dinner will be provided. |

ATTN: HISTORY OF ART LECTURE STUDENTS As a reminder for a later date given that any one of you are drunk on either Stoli or hormones: as aforementioned in class, starting on Monday's lecture, there shall be a receptacle area for your wards before the lecture room. Many of the other professors have already discussed their reasoning, and I have pontificated enough on this subject within lecture; nevertheless, if one is to insist upon bringing the wards to the classroom despite the oral reccomendation of the professor, then one must at least provide middle ground. That being said, if this solution is not satisfactory to you, then I would heavily suggest that you do not enter my classroom for next week's lectures. If one is not cunning enough to find a solution for your child that does not involve parting with it or otherwise providing an alternate solution, then it is entirely possible that one is not equipped to be in the classroom period.
ATTN: ADVANCED TRANSFORMATIVE THEORY STUDENTS Much of the above applies to you as well, although there have not been nearly as many incidents in order for me to believe a holding station would be needed; if it is, please message me as soon as possible. That being said, this is a public reminder that you are to have your second examination on Friday, 31 June; as promised in class, I am posting this message as a public forum to nominate what meal we are to have during the review exercise that week. Please inform me before the end of Sunday so that I may prepare appropriately. |

( PRIVATE TO: Alma Jones )
Many of my contemporaries have had the pleasure of informing you of their course offerings for the next semester. Due to circumstances, I haven't the pleasure of doing as such until now. Hopefully, many of you are still open to tailoring your course schedules and will not overlook the following offerings:
HUM-A: 131 - HISTORY OF ART is under the same format as it was last semester, although with additional possibilities of more on-site study sessions in the future in the same vein as the final study session that was held in May. For those who are unaware of the nature of History of Art and are in need of a general elective in the Humanities, the excerpt from the course catalogue is as follows:
This course is a survey of the visual culture of supernatural societies from prehistory until the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Highlights of the periods covered will include that of early Near-Eastern fertile cult art, the influence of pantheonic relations in Ancient Greek and Roman art traditions, the powers and spells depicted in Pre-Columbian and Aztec art, and the European canon’s interpretation of super-heroic and mythologic roles in modern and contemporary art.
MAG-T 262 - ADVANCED TRANSFORMATIVE THEORY is a continuation of the transformative theory half of MAG-T 261. The description of the course from the catalogue is below, for interested parties:
This course is written with the intent of being a continuing exploration into the various and sundry topics within the transfigurative sciences as introduced in MAG-T 261. The chief goal of the course is to reinforce theoretical concepts previously introduced to the student by practical application, both by laboratory work and by simulated field experience. Highlights of the material shall include the application of tectonic shift to one’s advantage on the battlefield, the usage of fluid super-dynamics in offensive and defensive situations, the socio-ethical ramifications of morphing the fabric of the reality matrix, hypercontrol of the transformation of self, and the transfiguration of enemies when under great duress. For those accustomed to the lecture-laboratory structure of Alchemy and Transformative Theory, I will inform you at this moment that MAG-T 262 will be designed with the physically active student in mind. Although it is not included as a prerequisite, Hand-to-Hand Combat would be an intelligent course to take either prior to or in conjunction with this course, as there will be a concentrated amount of sparring on a day-to-day basis in some units of the course. As this is a class intended for the upperclassman, both Biology and Alchemy and Transformative Theory shall be required as prerequisites; transfer credit will suffice in many cases, although special cases are encouraged to petition both myself and their Dean of Faculty for permission to take the course. Please contact me for details if that is the case, as long with any questions you may have about the class as a whole should you be interested in adding it to your roster. |
|
|
| 003: Professor Endischee is, altogether, quite pleased. |
[16th May. 2009 • 18:18] |
Congratulations, everyone. You survived, or you contributed to one of the most miraculous impressive scientific retrievals that Neopolis has seen in some time. It is encouraging to see that the happy ending is still proving itself to be not so entirely mythical as today's schadenfreude would like you to believe.
FILTERED TO GENERAL STAFF: The lot of you are getting prepreared meals for a week. Ballato, you are free to dispose of yours and/or use it as breeding grounds for your microbacterial experiments as you see fit. It would be unfitting of your nature if you did otherwise. The same goes to any of you, but a week's work of bulk meals are being offered with the idea that you will be focusing on other nonsense that is a little more important than the menial task.
FILTERED TO MAGIC STAFF: There is going to be a Magic Staff Dinner within the next few days. Alma and I are hosting. You are not, by any means, required to attend -- after all, many of you have a lot more important things to do than to consort with your colleagues after such an event. Be that as it may, the invitation is open. However, much like my note to the general staff, let it be known that you are getting food regardless. It was either this or hundreds of stretcher frames. I believe you know which one is more valuable to you and yours.
Regardless of your choice, I shall see the majority of you in two weeks' time. It is easier to paint when one is not, more or less, besieged by stress. |
