In the university park area of Hogwarts, Owen, the head of the Ministry of Magic, and Allen, who was walking with the soon-to-be-appointed vice-principal of the university, Gatler Grindelwald, were strolling around.
Clouds floated above the towering steeple. The magnificent Gothic architectural style had become the symbol of the entire University of Hogwarts. The building area of the university was very large. Unlike the primary school and the headquarter, which had a main structure, there were many small branches in the university area according to different specializations. Some shops, such as bookstores and hotels, were in the university area. These branches were also connected to the workshops in the nearby industrial area according to their specializations. Therefore, instead of calling it a university, it was more like a small town.
In the campus area, the wizards, students, professors, and even tourists would greet Allen and Owen. The British wizards were used to seeing them, but the foreign students could not contain their excitement so easily. Some football fans and female fans shouted Allen's name loudly. Fortunately, the guards had received training on how to deal with such things and stopped them from rushing over.
Alan and Owen, who had just vomited on the fence, waved at them kindly, but they did not slow down and continued to lead Grindelwald away from the crowd. At this time, many people noticed the old man beside them. Although Grindelwald's appearance and clothes were completely different from when he was still a rebel, the German wanted order some time ago still let the wizards who had suffered in their families know his current appearance.
These wizards were not in favor of the British taking over the supervision of Hogwarts, and they felt that it was too easy for them. When they saw that the first generation of the Dark Lord seemed to be able to move freely, they were even more dissatisfied. However, they could only look at Grindelwald with fear and hatred. But because of their current position and the law of Hogwarts, these people did not go further.
"Owen, you've given birth to a good son. You've thought of so many measures … If your grandfather, father, and I had so many means back then …" Grindvall paused for a moment and shook his head. "Even if we did, we probably wouldn't be able to do it. I don't have your son's patience. We didn't plan to be so harmonious with the Muggles back then …"
"Erm … Mr. Grindelwald, it's mainly because your ideas in that era were so superior that they could not see the need …" Owen already knew that Grindelwald was aware of their plan to keep the secret law, but he still felt uncomfortable.
"That's why I want all of them to feel the need for it and ask us to do it." Allen had a smug look on his face.
"Although it's not quite the same as my ideal situation, I didn't expect to see it come true one day." Grindelwald's white hair was neatly combed, white with a faint smile on his face. he nodded at Allen. "Then, I want to know … Allen, please tell me, as the vice-principal, what do I need of you? What do I need to do? "
"Manage the school well as the vice-principal?" I don't have the time to manage so many academies, so I've followed the example of the University of Cambridge in the British Muggle world. In fact, Hogwarts is a consortium of academies that is much looser than primary schools and the headquarters. As for the specifics, each academy is more autonomous according to their own specialties. The only thing they have to abide by is the uniform constitution of the Hogwarts University headquarters. The constitution is usually made by the Regent, the Senate, and the committee to assist you in making decisions every year. The headquarters is only responsible for the examinations and the awarding of degrees. The specific standards for recruiting students are determined by each academy, but it's up to you to distribute. "
Grindelwald raised one of his eyebrows. Owen just kept a smile on his face. He didn't know his son's specific plan, so he couldn't say anything, so he seemed a little uncomfortable.
"In the current situation, you don't need to do anything. These schools and their protection umbrella have cooperated with some private workshops. The magic research team of Hogwarts and these corporate teams collaborate to innovate and achieve the integration of knowledge, technology, and industry. They provide funds to support the school's research, and the school provides technology for them to make profits. The profits they make will continue to be fed back to Hogwarts. So we don't need you to do too much. As long as you manage the school well, we just need to wait for time to pass and let the wizards grow and develop freely. So …" Allen paused. "Gettler, I learned from your research in Demstrand that you and I have similar views in this regard. So I invited you to be the vice-principal because I think you are very suitable for this job. I hope you can do the job well. Abusi used to be an educator. Don't you want to show off your achievements in front of him?"
"At least make sure you don't blow up the city during your research …" As a politician, Owen wasn't too interested in research. However, he knew that his old boss and son didn't care about this aspect. Grindelwald, like Dumbledore, showed great magical talent at a young age, but he didn't spend his energy on pursuing honor and medals. He was even less interested in this than his son. When he was sixteen, Demstrand realized that he couldn't continue to experiment with Gellert's experiments. Grindelwald turned a blind eye to his wicked and disorderly experiments, and expelled him from the school.
"I don't like educating people like Abusi, but I don't dislike it." Grindelwald stared at Allen and shrugged. "You have a big appetite, but you have to be careful of those who have to do something when you don't need to do anything."
"That's why Dumbledore isn't suitable for the management of a school that pursues knowledge. Of course, if he's willing to teach … just transfiguration and alchemy, I'll welcome him." When Alan heard Grindelwald mention Dumbledore, he replied, "Because in terms of the allocation of teachers, the university is and will continue to invite masters and experts from various fields in the magic world. Although their time is very precious, and some of them can only occasionally take the time to come and give a few public lectures, because the education of this university still needs time for us to accumulate and develop, there are not many people at the moment. There are not many people in many academies. Therefore, in addition to the public collective lectures, we have adopted a mechanism similar to the ancient wizards leading apprentices. A mentor will lead a few young wizards to conduct research in related fields."
"Allen, Mr. Grindelwald just reminded you. You should pay attention. Since it seems that they will lose if this continues, they won't just sit still and wait for death …" Owen said as he looked at Grindelwald hesitantly. In the end, he looked at his son without hesitation. "Also, Allen, what's the situation with the three departments that make policy? The Regent, the Senate, and the Committee?"
"The Committee is responsible for the administration. It defines the mission of the university, makes planning and manages the resources. It also handles the relationship between the university and the academy. The Committee will be made up of 17 academic members, 7 honorary external members, and 7 student members. The Vice President will also be the chairman of the Committee. The Senate elects the senior management of the university. It consists of all the members of the Regent and some outstanding students who have a Ph.D. or Master's degree in Wizardry. The Committee is the policy-making and executive body. It regularly reports to the Regent on the work and issues of general concern to the university. The Regent will also publish the news on the university's official website. "Allen looked at Owen and introduced," As for the Regent, it's the management of the university. It has the right to vote. It can make or amend the rules and regulations of the university, vote to appoint the members of the meeting, and award degrees and honorary degrees. Of course, except for a small number of elected members … most of the members will be decided by the President himself. So, father, you're also a member … If you accept the invitation … "
"Allen, you know that's not what your father wants to ask …" Grindelwald smiled at Owen.
"Of course, father, I understand what you mean. But the university is not the Ministry of Magic, nor is it the entire Hogwarts. Our university is a research university …" Allen nodded. "If a research institution wants to produce practical results and achievements, we can't restrict it too much. We can't add political dictatorship into the academic world …" He said casually. "But, father, I'm the President of the university. And the university itself is just a part of the floating city of Hogwarts …"
Rumble rumble rumble …
Allen's stomach suddenly made a noise that drowned out the sound in his mouth …
"I just emptied my stomach. I'm a little hungry now … Gettler, father, let's go home and find something to eat …"
