[QUOTE="GladiusNP, post: 761575, member: 10574"] Not to sound negative, (although with that said, here comes my criticism), but a university seems out of place in Mor's End. It's a trade city. The ruler, Lady Kelvin, probably can't spend lots and lots of gold on supporting a university/ school, since most of the guilds/ wealthy merchants, etc, are really not that interested. If it was the capital city of a kingdom, then it would be a different story, but I don't think Mor's End has lots of cash reserves for schools. Also, who's going to attend? Not native kids - few would be rich enough to enjoy the luxury of study rather than training for an apprenticeship. I'd have to say that a university of only twenty teachers isn't going to attract lots of out-of-towners, they'd probably want to study elsewhere. With all of that said, I hope I haven't ruffled too many feathers - if people decide in the end that yes, it would really add something to the city, then I'm happy to go along with that. I just think that it doesn't fit terribly well. [/QUOTE]
