The Grey Labyrinth University

[Huey]

Nestles between valleys of the Broadband, far away from traffics of the Highway, lies our beloved university. On all sides line the trees that bear the fruits of knowledge, as if holding hands, swaying to an electronic breeze that cackles. A statue of our great founder guards the front entrance; a puzzled visage greets the world. Behind him a huge fountain sings, in a language seen but not spoken. Through the entrance the main hall welcomes us, its walls lined with portraits of the faculty members, accompanied by Socrates, Einstein, and Mel Gibson. There is a huge board that hangs from the far wall, on it are the rules of our establishments.

It reads: “No passes are required to go to the bathroom” (for Mith)
“No need to enroll, no need to be on time. Only be respectable toward
others.”
“Come late, come naked, but come with an open mind.”
“There are no distinctions between race, age, and most importantly, sex,
provided you share and share alike.”
“Have fun learning!”

[Huey]

Help Wanted:

Principle (nominates Mith), and faculty members.

[Huey]

The university is still under construction. I urge you all to contribute.

[Chuck]

I guess Oxford will be shutting down as all of its professors seek positions here.

[VinnyQ]

I'll be the janitor. You can pay me minimum wage.

[Agamemnon]

I'll run the student bar or something.
Unless you need a European/world history/geography assistant.......or an explosives technician even!

[Neo]

We need a class for Elvish and Klingon!

[Huey]

Vinny, Aristotle ,our resident GL puppy, has made poo poo in the garden. Will you go clean it up?


We need a mascot.

[Huey]

Aga, we'd be honor to have you as a professor. please be our Geography teacher? Please please? I recommend starting a new thread and perhaps a brief geography quiz to see how much we know (capital of countries perhaps?)

[Huey]

Need a math thread for general math help, I volunteer CrystyB. Are you still around Crysty?

[Kd]

Ooh, a university! I'm not due for one of those for another 2-3 years... ^_^

Uhm.. I'd like to be an English Language professor(ette), specializing in punctuation.
Pretty please?

If not, then hey, I can serve dinners. i'm flexible.

[Huey]

Hey! It'd be a priviledge to have you as our english prof. You can feed us AND teach us grammar. We use to have a thread that dealt with grammar questions ... but you should start a new one, I be having lots of questions for you prof.

[PuzzleProdigy]

Mascot: Kakapo?

I'll volunteer to run the library.

[PuzzleProdigy]

Hmmm...
I'll also take a role as the T.A. for French 101. Groza or CF would both be more advanced in French than me though.

[Huey]

Kakapo it is ...but what does a Kakapo look like?

PP, what are some of the books in our library? (it'd be great if you can describe our library as well, that'll be cool!)

[mathgrant]

I'm teaching algebra

[monique]

Does anyone know any Latin? Maybe we could get a class going on that.

[braindead]

i dont, but if u want someone to teach chinese...i'll volunteer. that is if u want

[MatthewV]

Im looking for a course in Russian. anybody know of a good one?

[Dragon Phoenix]

Anybody interested in a class on:

[a] classical music
[b] art (painting, with the help of Bambi phoenix)

?

[SaberKitty]

vote: classical music

(can you do music theory? or just about classical music? both are spiffy :. either would be appriciated)

[Huey]

/in

[VinnyQ]

classical music is a great idea, DP! I need refresher on my Brahmns and Bachs.

MatthewV, ask Luminous to teach you Russian

[Hitman]

I will be a history teacher.

PS:Is this real online classes or just giving quizs to everybody?

[Mr Nigma]

I'll be the ROTC guy, or maybe just the annoying recruiter

(as song) Yvan eht nioj
Or maybe the superliminal method - Hey you! Join the Navy!

(I like the Simpsons)

------------------
I'm a figment of my imagination.
Cognito, ergo sum.

[wordcross]

I think DP should be the librarian.

oook!

[Mycroft]

Will DP start a history thread too? And maybe a Dutch language for beginners?
I'd be quite interested in those since Afrikaan is an off-shoot of Dutch and History is just an interest of mine.

[CrystyB]

Huey, i just about now read this - if i could be of any assistance, please say so. I am willing.

[Neo]

There's no German thread?

[Hitchhiker]

Du spricht Deutsch, Neo?

[Neo]

"Sprichst du Deutsch?" (informal) or "Sprechen Sie Deutsch?" (Formal) is the correct phrasing

Ja, Ich spreche ein bissen Deutsch, aber nicht sehr gut.

[Termital]

Can I start a modern Greek class?

I'd like to teach potential tourists a couple of words more than "syrtaki", "Zorbas", and "mouzakas" (a dance, a fictional character and a food containing meat, aubergines and cream if you must know). Like how to complain when the taxi drivers takes you on a 20 km ride to cover two blocks of distance, how to reject unwanted advances by random passers-by, how to accept wanted advances by random passers-by, that sort of thing.

(I wonder why the tourist board turned me down for a job .)

Plus that could be a thread whaere the [ symbol] tags got more use than in the math threads. That's gotta be worth something .

[mith]

Ooh, how come no one told me about this? (This is what I get for never checking EI )

[luminous]

I could do the Russian thing, seeing as I'm the most Russian of anyone here. *shifty eyes* Or Explosive Anger 101...I'm great at that. RAAAAAGE.

[Neo]

Russki! Da!

[Ghost Post]

Now now lum, i think someone other than you is the best choice for an anger non-management class

[luminous]

Oh please. Like who? I spend my time putting staples through the faces of celebrities and friggin' stabbing myself. Come on. There's no one more qualified than I.

[Ghost Post]

well, i spend MY time eatting babies and terrifying small animals.

[luminous]

I own a shirt that declares babies as good protein and I also spend time plotting the destruction of humanity. And making up good arguments against humanity and just about everything else like the good little nihilist that I am. Yay.
