  3. 6 and 6- I think uniforms are a fantastic idea, but there should be an extremely wide variety of uniforms to chose from.

  5. 9 – Expensive?! There is always (virtual) money in the first national muse academy bank!

  9. I suggest jeans with button-up shirts and optional ties, and bowties for formal occasions.

    There you go. Everyone’s happy. But no plaid. Unless you’re Scottish and want to wear your kilt. In which case, go ahead.

  12. That might work. It seems to me that the main value of uniforms is wearing them off-campus to strike fear into the hearts of the general populace. Weren’t we talking about capes or something? Formal school occasions should also require special garments. Apart from that, I’d guess Musers would need a fair amount of freedom.

  13. 6- Ties = bad. Have you ever had to wear a tie to school? Huh? (Actually, you probably have, but still) I have worn a tie to school for a year, which is not very much, but I, and all my comrades, want to cut them up into very small pieces. And we’re the “good” students!

  14. Yeah, that would be so much better. There might be one thing (like a cloak) that you have to get that’s from the school, but that’s it. :) :)

  16. 20-Who on earth would go and research those statistics? And why?
    24-Yes, I have. I know 20 ways to tie a tie. What about ascots? Cravats? Do you like those?
    27-I wear booty shorts. And midriff tops. So there you go.

    Capes would be excellent. Or what about really stylish hats?

    Can we have a Scholastic Bowl team?

  17. I say we should have mandatory cloaks with specially-enhanced billowing effect, and we can wear anything else that we like. SOME of us might choose to wear cravats (which are very cool, BTW), and tricorn hats (doubly cool), but others can opt for jeans and a t-shirt of they choose (although that’s a bit boring).

  18. 27 – I wouldn’t be caught dead in booty shorts.

    Capes! So long as they’re short enough that you don’t trip on them. Because however brilliantly coordinated other MuseBloggers are, I’m dead clumsy.

    I don’t really care what I wear, but I think that we should find a uniform that everyone can agree on – because it wouldn’t make any sense for everyone to wear the school uniform while wearing different clothes from everyone else.

    I say whatever, but you have to wear the cape. :D

  19. 31-Yes, cloaks are not complete without the billowing effect. That makes it all so much more intimidating/pwnsome.

    Uniforms, yes the Uni part means ONE and the Form part mean formal, right? So uniforms are one formal (yuck) manditory (yuck) outfit. YUCK. Altough I do like cloaks. :)

    27-Neither would I, but I’m a boy. Oh, huplah, everyone’s triped on their jeans at least once (well, I have) and tripping on a cloak would be just funny. Especially when you’re sweeping it to look impressive and eville.

    28-No, I mean like SHORT booty shorts and REALLY CREEPILY LOW midriff shirts. If you have the body, you can wear it. If you don’t DONT. Some crazy girl at my school wore a midriff tank top and her bulge stuck over the shorts. :yuckness:

  20. We should just have dozens of bizarre, obscure uniforms and you can choose which one you want to wear. The only commonality is that they all have the “Muse Academy” logo on them somewhere.

  23. 27 – Sometimes
    33 – Eew. Actaully, form means type or kind. I’ve actually tripped on a cloak before, I wore a really awesome one for Halloween last year and nearly fell down the stairs.
    35 – I totally agree, save for the red face paint. Cool outfit!

    Not uniforms, everyone: multiforms, myraforms, morethanoneforms. Maybe it depends on hobbies or clubs or groups or something. But I must say, a black cloak should be at the very least encouraged. Very billowy, mysterious, with a hood and secret pockets.

    Mine is pretty much the same as Lawrence’s, except they wouldn’t all need to be black, though that would look completely awesome. Just add a belt, scabbard, and some sort of headband, and I’d wear that around school! I’d need five gazillion pockets to carry all my amazing knick-knacks around with me, though.

  24. NO UNIFORMS! I like robert’s idea, just for special occasions. billowing capes are always fun, but i wouldn’t wear them every day.

    Anyway, i would never wear the uniform uness it involved jeans or cargo pants and t-shirts (and hoodies when it gets cold). So there. MA’s first rebellion. :idea:

  32. I actually like plaid. But I wouldn’t want to wear the same thing every day…
    I have a khaki pleated skirt I wear to school sometimes. It looks like uniform skirt, but I don’t wear it every day. More like once every 2 weeks.

    I would enjoy wearing the cape, sometimes, but not every day. Then it might get annoying.

  35. Personally, I think we should be able to wear whatever we want, and have cloaks that indicate which house we’re in. Whatever colors were on the cloaks would sort that out. They could even have designs, if we were so inclined, but I don’t know if too many guys would want to wear a cloak with a rose on it. Either way, Spector House’s cloaks would be scarlet with dark green trim; Coontz House’s would be purple with silver trim; Baker House’s would be Lincoln green with gold trim; and Lasley House’s would be hot pink with black trim.
    (I couldn’t find what color trim was for Coontz and Lasley Houses, so I made those up…they cna be changed accordingly.)

  53. Hail, fellow musers! I took the test and I am in Coontz House. Also, I know I’m kind of late coming to this thread. It is because of homework. There should not be three hours of homework every night at Muse Academy. Right? Got it? Good.

    Moving on to the uniform issue thing, I think you should have to wear something that is your house color, whether it is a shirt, pants, hat, button, cloak, ect. You could buy many of these items through the school, so it would be like school spirit wear. However, things from home would work just as well.

    Finally, was there a certain number of classes that you had to take?

  63. That’s a good idea. The Muses are inspirations for academics. For example, the electronics lab can be named after Chad, the computer center after Aeiou, the math hall after Urania, etc. Mimi presides over anything involving economics, politics, and history, as they either describe ways for people to get along together or record what happens when don’t get along so well.

  86. Yes, sorry for the confusion, I mean this new school is secondary to Muse Academy, and because Muse Academy contains all of the grades of normal school, this “secondary school” is really a college of sorts, where one learns more about the history of pies and muse, etc., the science, and anything else you could think of that’s cool like that :D :D :D :D :D :D Beyond what Muse Academy can teach, of course!

  108. We should have a mini-MA for 5th and 6th graders. Like, not full blown MA, but sort of an intro course. It’s basically a magnet school, but you get to do Muserly-ish activities (fencing, archery, art, stuff like that). And you don’t have to be a Muser to get in, but Muses are often used as reference guides for projects and clases and stuff.

    And I think that for characters, everyone can have one teacher and one student, and that’s it. But everyone who already has three characters or two students or two teachers or anything like that can be grandfathered in, and just not be allowed to make any more charactrs.

    All in favor on either measure say “Aye”.

    All MuseBloggers can automatically choose to go to Muse Academy starting in Grade 7. Any younger than that and you have to take an extra test proving you’re mature enough. (not really, but let’s just pretend) You can also CHOOSE to go to that earlier school (so,for example, your character could have already gone to that school for a year or two before coming to MA.)

    And for the second one…
    I actually agree with TMFA. 2 students and one teacher per person sounds okay to me, as long as it doesn’t get too confusing.

    groundhog22 (post 123) – I know that you already picked Lasley House (like me – whee!), but I wanted to say that I also got 1 of each Coontz, Spector, and Lasley. If you read post 197 of Part 1, you’ll see I just picked one instead of being assigned one. Well, you can pick another even if the quiz clearly rules you to a house, I guess.

So, I could go to college in Iceland. And they have a museum studies program! I think the language barrier is the biggest problem.
