Ba Sing Se University

Ba Sing Se University is a major school of thought, serving scholars throughout the Earth Kingdom. It is the greatest university in the world, according to its enrollment materials. The university campus is a major landmark in the Middle Ring of Ba Sing Se.

History
Once a great repository of knowledge for the citizens of Ba Sing Se, its academic offerings became somewhat tainted after the ascent of Long Feng to the post of Grand Secretariat, especially in the areas of current events and political science. It is, however, still regarded as a major achievement of engineering, architecture, and science, especially for its famed Kim Astrology Tower and the two-acre Mung-Yi Research Koi Pond. The head zoologists at the university were charged with going out and fetching rare creatures for Earth King Kuei's private menagerie, including a mate for Bosco, although one was never found. Professor Zei once held the position of head of the Anthropology Department.

Degrees
The Ba Sing Se University has various degrees. Some of the classes taught are music, zoology, architecture, anthropology, art, geography, history, political science, astrology, science, engineering, mathematics, drama and a class on desert cultures that was once taught by Professor Zei.
