Academia gets criticised for being an ivory tower but tbh if I could study in a tower? With robes and candles? Sounds cool as fuck

Less magic schools. More magic universities. Unlearn the simplified models of your secondary education. Discover how to reference scrolls written by a wizard possessed by a different wizard. Identify bias in the voices that whisper from beyond the veil. Have your institution be accused of promoting a Merlinist agenda. Become addicted to energy potions.

so i've gotten into website coding recently and i decided to make my own buttons n stuff for it (cause my aesthetic is v specific and hard to find stuff for - I affectionately refer to it as "D&D wizard teleported to modern time/wizard academia).

Anyways, anyone is welcome to use these, i just ask you give credit or at the very least don't claim it as your own.

A thing that bothers me about wizard schools in popular media – outside of the magic-grade-school stuff, anyway – is that they're typically depicted as being basically magic universities, but their actual curricula and pedagogical approaches look much more like those of a technical institution. Like, buddy, that's not a wizard university, that's a wizard trade school. You can't just slap university student culture on top of trade school pedagogy. It doesn't work like that – the one emerges from the other!

“Well, technically.” She began.

“I’m also the dean, professor of Conjunctioning Spheres, Divination and History of Modern Magic.” She listed the titles on her fingers. She frowned, scrunching up her weary freckled face. “I’m also the caretaker.” She looked far too young to be any of those things, except maybe a caretaker. Junior caretaker.

“And you’re… you’re qualified for all of this?” asked the leatherclad rogue, squeaking in her far too new and far too tight armour. They had been looking for a new magician ever since their last one got done in by standing far too close to a set of very interesting runes. The rogue still had night terrors about the colour purple.

“Not at all. But I’m very good at writing academic papers. Oh, and magic missles.” Her mispronunciation of the word missiles did not, in fact, alleviate their concerns.

The former man-at-arms leaned back and pinched the bridge of their nose. “Do please explain exactly how a second term apprentice becomes the headmaster, dean, head chef, and whatnot.” They said in a sour voice. Their wine had been bad, like a bitter brick poured into a bottle. Their patience wore thin with nasally wizards at the best of times.

“Hey, I’m not head chef. I’ve got no right to that title. The others though… well, you know how regular academia can be cutthroat?” The group’s nodding prompted her to proceed. “Well, wizard academia is a blast in an enclosed space. So, all titles were instantly passed to me, the only living member of the school that could have a technical claim to them. So, when are we leaving?”

Izuku, on the phone:…Yes?

Bakugo: Please tell me you’re not on the internet dressed like an old man wizard and stalking around the mall.

Izuku:…Not saying I am, but I am saying I was dared to do something like that.

Bakugo:

Izuku: A lady pushed me down for trying to go around the counter.

okay guys, hear me out. imagine. james potter is an indian history professor who goes to the french archives for his research on french colonies in India over the summer, where he meets the archive curator of the Archives Nationales, dr regulus black, who never gives him exactly what he wants so they can keep meeting over and over again as james works on his paper. btw way their love language is highlighting quotes in the xerox copies of the manuscripts that they share because they thought the other would like it.
