Bigglebottom 101
HIST 101 – Professor Grandell
This course begins with a crucial question: Who is Beauchamp Bartholomew Bigglebottom? Before he founded the academy, Bigglebottom contributed to magical society in a myriad of ways. To truly understand the core values of the university, one must understand Bigglebottom himself and the unique resources of this cratered campus. To give students from all backgrounds the skills they need to succeed, this course also includes the basics of practical sorcery.
Magic and Technology
History 210- Staffing varies
This course offers a comprehensive overview of the intersection of magical and technological growth across time. The expansion of technology, particularly the widespread use of the assembly line, initially inhibited magical development across the globe; however, the magical community has since made great bounds in combating and collaborating with technological development. Topics may vary by professor.
