It is September, and the time has come for the biannual mass migration of people between the ages of 18 and 24 to college campuses worldwide. In the Feengrenze, it is no different, and the sole university in the eastern half of Tir Na Calite, Sliberberg’s Coláiste Draoidheil is slowly filling up with prospective wizards, apprentice artificers, and assorted other magical misfits.
Of course, the traditional classes one might expect at a wizard’s college are available—Alchemy 101, Basic Illusions, Introduction to Profane Rituals, and so on. But the strange nature of the Feengrenze allows for… more unusual courses. And yes, somehow the college has faculty for everything.

1. NKMY 101 Introductory Nekomancy: The fundamentals of the school of magic that deals with housecats, wildcats, and other small felines. Students are expected to provide their own cat. Professor Takata Reiko is a 200-year-old elf often mistaken for one of the students, a tendency not helped by her obsession with everything cute, energetic, albeit juvenile personality, and being 5’ 2” tall.
2. MNTL 105: Introduction to sentient thoughts. A strangely popular seminar on the strange Feengrenze phenomenon of Sentient Ambulatory thoughts. The course includes practical demonstrations of interacting with thoughts. Tinfoil hats are not strictly necessary during class, but highly recommended. Professor Ragnum is a gnome and a classic absent-minded professor prone to letting his demonstration subjects escape.
3. WBD 001 Web design 1: An introductory class on designing magic webs, including structure, silk engineering, and optimal placement. Very popular with the giant intelligent spiders. The Professor Mrs Skitters is a well-respected figure in her field, and a giant black widow spider. She is also currently single and seeking male company.
4. ALCY 112 High Energy potions: All students must sign a waiver before taking the class and have completed an introductory course on lab safety. Highlights of the course include producing alchemist’s fire, potions of fire breathing, and the class favorite, nitroglycerin. Professor Poppinfizz is a gnome known for his explosive personality and ample number of burn scars.
5. PLSD 666 Infernal Studies: A third-year course requiring preliminary summoning and magical law courses. The course covers the Infernal Reich, its inhabitants, the convoluted structure of its government, and basic Infernal Law. Professor Mavthos, an accomplished summoner, is also head of the college’s legal department, the school of magical law, and an excellent lawyer. 
6. GMCY 117: Rivertine Geomancy: A strange mix of elementalism and limnology, the course focuses on various magics, spells, and rituals pertaining to rivers, streams, and brooks. The lecturer, a dwarf named Tharhus Copperblade, is a season geomancer and the author of several treatises on talking to waterways. He always brings the class on a field trip to demonstrate a conversation with the SilverFlow river on the other side of town.
7. PYCH ZZZ: Introductory Dream magic. It is a popular elective because it occurs during a shared dream at midnight. The course covers basic dream magic, dream manipulation, and dream logic. The Professor, Miss Somnolence, has never been seen awake, and according to the staff records, has never left her room on campus. She is apparently an elf and generally manifests in her dreams as being 18, in a frilly lolita dress and with blond hair in ringlets.
8.  PLSD 1+2=2+1: Higher Order Mathematics and the Great Lattice: An introductory course to conversing with the residents of the Great Lattice, the Axioms and Theorems. Students are taught mathematical theory and higher-order mathematical logic so that they freely converse with the highly ordered and rational residents of the plane of Negentropy. The course’s professor, Albin Edelstein, is a human man who embodies every trope and stereotype regarding math professors.
9. GAST 320: Applied Gastromancy: An advanced-level course in the field of food magic. The course is split 30/70 between lectures and practical training in the college dining hall, helping prepare lunch. Professor Remacle, a halfling and the college’s head chef, is notorious for screaming at students during practicum. Tansy Fleetfoot of the Silver Moon Coven is a frequent guest lecturer, usually giving at least two lectures per semester on enchanted pastries and bread.
10. THAM 100: Introductory Thaumaturgy is an entry-level course in the highly theoretical field of thaumaturgy. Subjects include trying to commune with angels with mirrors, finding the true names of God(s), and esoteric research on the Allsource. Nobody knows who teaches the course, except that they are something in a brown cloak that obscures the face and has a raspy voice.
11. WYRD 070: Wyrd Studies Seminar: An elective course dealing with the (ultimately fruitless study) of Wyrd Magic. Most of the coursework reads more like conspiracy theories than actual serious magecraft. It is an open secret that the professor, a human by the name of Norbert Lemberger, suffered a mental breakdown last year and yet still teaches the course, while wearing a tin foil hat, not wearing trousers, and using a rotten fish in place of a lecture pointer.
12. MLAW 105: Introduction to Magical Contract Law: One of the must-take courses in the admittedly small school of magical law. The course is a broad, high-level introduction to magical contracts, with Fey contracts and oaths getting much coverage. The professor, a fairy named Miss Luparia Citrustwig is known to get into trouble by tricking her students into signing binding agreements that state they will complete their coursework on time at the start of the semester.
