In my fantasy stories, I do have a magical school that is more like an university for young wizards in their late teens and twenties. Though they are not a main part of the story, I have a few scenes that take place in this school when the MC visits it.
I have one professor who can read the magical talents of any person he meets. He likes to engage the students in active discussions that occasionally turn rowdy.
Another professor is the world's expert on runes and how to use them, but his classes are so dry that he puts some students to sleep.
Magic lessons can add a lot of fun to the story and provide a way to develop a character's depth.
Thanks. I anticipate having some free time in a couple of weeks (yeah, probably overly optimistic, but I can always hope) and will see what I can do then. Thanks for the suggestions.
What is the latest on submitting short stories? The link above mentioned a March 30, 2023 deadline, so it seems to be out of date. I am getting something together (still have a ways to go) and should have a story ready in a few weeks. Just want to check this out more.

You should write a short story at the University and submit it!
