Ba Sing Se University is a major school of thought, serving scholars throughout the Earth Kingdom. The greatest university in the world, at least according to its enrollment materials, the BSSU campus is a major landmark in the Middle Ring of Ba Sing Se.
[edit] 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 (especially in the areas of current events and political science), and have presumably further decayed since the Fire Nation occupation began. It is still, however, 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 the Earth King'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, as mentioned during The Library, but is presumed to have been replaced.
[edit] Classes
Ba Sing Se University has classes in Music, Zoology, Architecture, Anthropology (including a class on Desert Cultures once taught by Professor Zei, Head of the Anthropology Department), Art, Geography, History, Astrology, Science, Engineering, Mathematics, Drama, most likely Earthbending, and much, much more.
