So, I was thinking that we should try and get together a list of the under-eighteens here so we can make sure we know what we're doing with the on-board school stuff. And since we had that new podpop, so there might be new people we're missing. If you are one or you know one, please speak up so I can work on a roster or something. And can I get all the people who have signed up as teachers to tell me what they're working on?

I'm Meluly. I'm doing some basic math and physics and stuff, but I've been kind of scarce lately. I'm sorry about that, it was a personal matter.

EDIT:
Under-18s (whot did I miss?)
Adam, Antonio, Billy (the magic one), Billy (the one with glasses), Brainiac 5 (the more robot-y one) ("already a super-genius" exemption), Brenda, Cassie (the tall one), Cassie (the Amazonian one), Danny, Danielle, Eddie, Ender, Gavroche, Hunter, Jack, Jaime, Jamie, Julian, Kara, Katara, Kate, Kon, Mai, Megan, Mia, Lacus, Luna, Nana, Nathan (the younger one), Paco, Pavel, Rei, Ron, Roxie, Sean, Sherry, Sokka, Steve, Terry, Tim ("early graduation" exemption), Vega, Will, Yuri, Zuko, Wilimena
(I don't want to force anybody to take classes but it probably can't hurt unless you're already a super-genius right?)

(OOC: If anybody doesn't belong on the list because they're too old, that'd be an OOC error rather not an IC one so please shoot me an OOC note. If somebody's not on the list but should be, feel free to go the OOC or IC route and I'll get it fixed either way.)

I'm fifteen.

I'm curious. Why are all the "kids" under eighteen going to a school?

[aworldnevermade.livejournal.com]

Well, it's the way things work in the modern world, mostly. School from six to eighteen or so, and at that point there's the choice of secondary schooling or going straight into a vocation. And eighteen is the point of being a legal adult. It isn't universal, there are ways for a competent-enough minor to basically become a legal adult early, but that's how it usually is.

[anoldtrickster.livejournal.com]

THIS SHOULD HELP YOU OUT. I THINK THIS SHOULD BE EVERYBODY UNDER 18.

[[ User is requesting to send you thekids.rtf. ]]

[aworldnevermade.livejournal.com]

Oh, thank you, that should help I guess. Give me a minute to look through it.

[worm-dancer.livejournal.com]

I am Sheeana. I've signed up to teach Sociology, Political and Religious Studies and at least portions of the physical training.

[aworldnevermade.livejournal.com]

Got it. I think I saw your other post thing.

[not-prncss-tldr.livejournal.com]

I put down that i'd be willing to teach astrophysics and related disciplines, but i'm unsure of that will ever come up...

[aworldnevermade.livejournal.com]

It seems like we've got a couple of people here who live or lived in space, so I'm sure it could be useful for them.

[madeofwyn.livejournal.com]

i think i signed up to help out with chemistry. i'm pretty sure i'm not the teacher, though.

[aworldnevermade.livejournal.com]

Okay.

[playsin-traffic.livejournal.com]

I'm 17, but i'm not going back to school. Don't need to.

[aworldnevermade.livejournal.com]

Why not?

[birthmural]

I taught paranormal studies at a university. I am qualified to teach demonology and theology. I can also teach psychometry and defense against dark magics.

[aworldnevermade.livejournal.com]

Okay, I'll put you on the list for that kind of stuff, if you're up to it. Though I think Sheeana already has at least some of the theology so you might want to talk with her.

[visserbasher.livejournal.com]

I'm 18 but I'd still like to go to school. My education is closer to a 16 year old's anyway. It's complicated.

[aworldnevermade.livejournal.com]

Sounds okay to me. Trust me, I'm used to weird circumstances.

[staturity]

I also go by Cassie Lang or Stature if that helps.

Personal question but are you feeling better?

[aworldnevermade.livejournal.com]

I am. And thank you very much for helping with that.

[projectra.livejournal.com]

I am a princess. I do not need education.

OOC: Yes, yes she does.

[aworldnevermade.livejournal.com]

I'd have thought that a princess would need to be the smartest of anybody in order to run a country well.

[morphitudinous]

I'll offer to assist my fellow students with chemistry or physics if the need arises. As a full-time engineer and president of my high school's science club, I'd like to think that I'm qualified to help somewhat.

My major weakness in the sciences is with biology, and I'd also like to pursue further study in history---though given our situation, the scope of the universe's history is too broad to cover. Any subject that would enhance our understanding of various cultures and perhaps prepare us for what we may face would be useful.

I'm slightly concerned about the school schedule conflicting with my Engineering duties, though. Is it possible that material covered in classes could be recorded and accessible later, should a situation that requires my attention arise?

[aworldnevermade.livejournal.com]

That sounds like a really good idea, actually. I'll see what I can figure out with the omnicoms or w/e to record stuff. Or maybe one of you techies can put together something.

For the cultures thing, some kind of sociology/comparative polisci might work best. Focus more on the templates and usual patterns than specific societies/cultures/countries/whatever.

[in-venting.livejournal.com]

Will there be a test to see where everyone is academically? I don't mind taking classes again, but I don't want to be too far ahead or too far behind anyone, either.

[aworldnevermade.livejournal.com]

I think some tests already happened for some people, I haven't seen the results though. We can probably set up another round for anybody who missed the first one.

[reaverkiller.livejournal.com]

...I'm seventeen, but gen ed is unnecessary.

[aworldnevermade.livejournal.com]

Why?

[theregularguy.livejournal.com]

I don't need to go to school.

[aworldnevermade.livejournal.com]

Why not?

[wolf-that-grins.livejournal.com]

Wags-Tail-A-Lot, studying history and literature.

[aworldnevermade.livejournal.com]

Okay.

[craaazyisland]

Wait, there's a school here? Or there's gonna be?

Well, um... I was a junior in high school. So I guess that counts, right?

[aworldnevermade.livejournal.com]

Yeah. It's kind of patchworky but I'm hoping to get it going better.

What sort of classes are you into?

[telekinetic_badass]

...eh, what the hell.

Sign me up, sweetheart.

[aworldnevermade.livejournal.com]

Okay, but only because you're being so cute about it. ;-D

[hatngartersnake.livejournal.com]

I am nineteen, and the legal age of majority where and when I am from is fourteen, but I wouldn't mind taking or assisting with some of the classes, so long as they don't interfere with my patrolling schedule.

[aworldnevermade.livejournal.com]

Sounds fine to me. What are you into/behind on?

[flunkingspanish.livejournal.com]

KON! KON KON KON!

WE NEED TO START BUILDING THAT TREBUCHET IN THE SENSORIUMS.

[aworldnevermade.livejournal.com]

Huh?

[mynameisax.livejournal.com]

I would be happy to assist with the sciences portion of the education program. Human science back in my universe is somewhat backward.

[aworldnevermade.livejournal.com]

Okay. You think you could cover past like... basic relativity? I've never been very good with hyperphysics. Not exclusively I mean but I don't know if we have anybody for that kind of stuff but Lafiel.

[riseupnchargem.livejournal.com]

Are we required to go to school if our name is on that list?

[aworldnevermade.livejournal.com]

Well, it would probably be a good idea.

[mrsarcastic003]

I'm sixteen, but I applied for early graduation from the high school I was attending. As far as I'm aware, the principal is granting my request.

Thanks for the offer, though. Do you mind if I sit in on some of the more interesting classes?

[aworldnevermade.livejournal.com]

I don't think anybody would have any objections.

Having discovered the speech to text function

[zu-sein.livejournal.com]

I'm 18, but I just recently graduated high school.

I wouldn't mind sitting in on some of the advanced classes, though. My world doesn't really have anything left as far as university-level learning other than military academies.

Re: Having discovered the speech to text function

[aworldnevermade.livejournal.com]

Sounds good with me. I'l point you at Allen once I can catch him for the advanced sciencey stuff? And Lafiel. For other subjects you'll want to check with those teachers.

[ewiggin.livejournal.com]

It couldn't hurt to have everyone on the same page. I agree with the proposition.

[aworldnevermade.livejournal.com]

Oh, good. Go take a look at Allen's thing too (http://community.livejournal.com/trans_channel/26866.html) if you didn't already.
