09:15 am - A scandal at Beirut University
In Beirut, there was once a scandal in which students began to practice magic at the university. They used books that contained "certain drawings of perverse demons, barbaric names and harmful, presumptuous commands replete with arrogance and quite fit for demons; certain of the incantations were attributed to Zoroaster the magus, others to Ostanes the magician, others yet to Manetho.
The books taught the following spells:- How one can set cities in turmoil, making the populace rise up and array fathers against their sons and grandsons.
- By what means one might break up legitimate marriages and cohabitations.
- How one might win over a woman who wishes to live in chastity to illicit love.
- How one might attempt adultery and murder.
- How one might commit theft.
- In what manner one can compel judges to deliver a sentence of acquittal."
-Zachary, Life of Severus.
I wish we had scandals like that at OSU.

Wow. That *IS* a cool-sounding scandal... That would be a cool scandal to have, IMHO.
Its too bad we have other, less fun scandals in schools today. having a scandal like that would be fun. Having titles for the books would be even more fun!! You could always start a scandal... You mean you still haven't realized the true meaning of all those USG Student Election chalked markings on the ground? Those aren't just advertisements, they're cleverly disguised sigils.
During the Mandel/Schwartz campaign, it was only the timely intervention of countersigils from Patel/Patel that allowed the university to narrowly avert an adulterous disaster of Biblical proportions. Oh, you must have missed that meeting at PSA... ![[User Picture]](https://l-userpic.livejournal.com/40113387/9231536) | | From: |  erienc |

How one might win over a woman who wishes to live in chastity to illicit love.
How one might attempt adultery and murder This is US good times to some people :) I really like how the last thing, getting judges to deliver acquitals, seems to just tie everything else together so nicely :) |
