Chapter 1195: Appetite
In the University Park area of Hogwarts, the Minister for Magic, Owen Zheng, and the somewhat frustrated Allen, took the incoming Vice Chancellor of the University, Gatler Grindelwald, for a stroll.
Drifting clouds float above the towering spire, and the magnificent Gothic architecture has become a symbol of Hogwarts University. The whole university building area is very large, and unlike the main castle structure of the elementary school and the main department, there are many small branches built in the university area according to the specialty, and they are in the university area with some shops such as bookstores and hotels, and these branches are also connected to the workshops in the nearby industrial area according to their specialty, so it is more like a small town than a university.
And in the park, the wizards who come and go, whether it is students or professors of some majors, and even those tourists, will say hello to Alan and Owen, and the wizards in Britain are used to seeing them, but it is okay for the wizards from Britain to see them, and the students from abroad are not so easy to contain the excitement in their hearts, some fans and female fans shout Alan's name loudly, fortunately, those guards are obviously trained in how to deal with such things, which stops them from wanting to rush further.
Alan and Owen, who had just vomited the fence, waved to them kindly, but the speed of their footsteps did not stop and continued to leave the crowd with Grindelwald, and at this time many people noticed the old man beside them - although Grindelwald's appearance and dress are completely different from those during his rebellion, but some time ago, the German wanted warrant still let those wizards who had suffered at home know what he looked like now.
These wizards, who were already disapprehensive of Britain taking over the regulation and thought that it was cheaper for him, were even more dissatisfied to see that the first generation of the Dark Lord seemed to be able to move freely, but they could only look at Grindelwald with fear or hatred for now, but with the current position and the laws of Hogwarts, these people did not go any further.
"Owen, you gave birth to a good son and thought of so many moves... If I had so many means with your grandfather and your father—" Grindelwald paused and shook his head, "I don't have the patience of your son, we wouldn't have been on such a par with the Muggles..."
"Uh... Mr. Grindelwald, the main thing is that your ideas of the time surpassed too many people to blind them to the necessity..."Owen still seemed uncomfortable, even though he already knew that the other party knew about their plans for secrecy laws.
"So I'm trying to make all of them feel the need for it, and let them ask us to do it. "Allen has a smug face.
"It's not like what I would have liked, but I didn't expect to see it happen one day. With a shallow smile on Grindelwald's face under his meticulously combed white hair, he looked at Allen, "So, I want to know... Alan, please tell me, what do I need to do with you as a vice principal, and what don't I need to do?"
"As a vice principal and manage the school?" Alan asked rhetorically, then smiled. Just do your job, I don't have much time to manage so many houses, so I follow the Cambridge University of the Muggle world in the UK, in fact, Hogwarts is a much looser house consortium than the primary school and the main department, and each house is more autonomous by each house according to its own specialty, the only thing that must abide by the unified Hogwarts University Headquarters, which is usually assisted by the Regency and the Senate and the committee to make decisions every year, the headquarters is only responsible for examinations and degrees, and the specific criteria for admitting students are determined by each house, but you assign them。 ”
Grindelwald raised an eyebrow when he heard this, and Owen just kept a smile beside him, but he couldn't open his mouth without knowing his son's specific plans, so he looked a little uncomfortable.
"In the current form, there is no need to do anything, these colleges and umbrellas and some private workshops have war cooperation, and the magic research team of Hogwarts and these enterprise teams collaborate to innovate and jointly realize the integration and development of knowledge, technology and industry... They provide money to fund the House's research, the House provides technology for them to profit, and they continue to feed back to Hogwarts... So we don't need you to do much more, as long as we manage the school, we just need to wait for time to pass and allow the wizards to grow and develop freely, so..."Alan paused, "Gatler, I know from your research at Durmstrang that you and I have similar views on this, so I invited you to be the vice chancellor of the university because I think you're a good fit for the job... I just want you to do the job itself... Albus used to be an educator, so you don't want to show off your achievements in front of him?"
"At least you have to be careful not to blow up the city when you research..."Owen was not too interested in research as a politician, but he knew that the family's old boss and son did not care about this - Grindelwald, like Dumbledore, showed great magical talent at a young age, but he did not spend his energy on the pursuit of honors and medals, he was even less interested in it than his own son, and at the age of sixteen, Durmstrang found that he could no longer be evil to Gellert Grindelwald. The messy experiments turned a blind eye and he was expelled from school.
"I don't like educating people as much as Albus... But it's not exclusive. Grindelwald stared at Alan and shrugged, "You have a big appetite, but you also have to watch out for people who have to do something in this situation where you don't need to do anything." ”
"So Dumbledore wasn't a good fit to be in the management of a school for the pursuit of learning, of course, if he wanted to come and teach... I'd love to just teach Transfiguration and Alchemy. Alan heard Grindelwald mention Dumbledore and replied, "Because in terms of faculty allocation, the university is and will continue to invite masters and experts from all walks of life in the wizarding world, although their time is very precious, and some of them can only occasionally come over to give a few public lectures... Since the education of this university still needs time for us to accumulate and develop, there are not many people in the academy at present, so in addition to the open group teaching, a mechanism such as the ancient wizard with apprentice is adopted, and a mentor leads several young wizards to conduct research in related fields. ”
"Alan, Mr. Grindelwald also reminded you, you should pay attention, since it seems that they will lose if this continues, then they will not sit still..." What about the three branches of the Regency and the Senate and the Commission?"
"The Commission has the responsibility of governance, and it defines the mission, plans and manages resources for the University. It also deals with the relationship between the university and the college, and the committee will be composed of seventeen academic members, seven honorary external members and seven student members, with the vice-chancellor serving as the chair of the committee; the Senate will elect the senior administrators of the university, consisting of all the members of the Regency and a number of outstanding recipients of the doctorate and master's degree in witchcraft; Allen looked at Owen and introduced, "As for the Regency as the governing body of the university, it has the right to vote, it can make or amend the rules and regulations of the university, vote on the members of the council, and award degrees and honorary degrees, except of course, for a few elected members... It's more up to the principal to decide who to choose, so you're one too, father... If you accept the invitation..."
"Ellen, you know that's not what your father wanted to ask," Grindelwald smiled at Owen after speaking.
"Of course, Father, I understand what you mean, but the university is not the Ministry of Magic, nor the whole of Hogwarts, our university is a research university..."Alan nodded, "If a research institution wants to produce actual results and results, we can't give too many constraints, and we can't put the political dictatorship in the academic world..."
Grunt...
The sudden ringing of Ellen's stomach drowned out the sound in his mouth...
"I was empty just now, and I'm a little hungry... Gatler, father, let's go home and get something to eat..."
