As part of Phase 2 of the new Path/Order rollout, three new CORE courses and exams are launching today: Sith Order Core, Gray Jedi Order Core, and Jedi Order Core. These are brand new courses and exams with content based on a consolidation of the old CORE courses (now "Legends") and other sources like Wookieepedia. No one has taken these before, so you can all go rack up a total of six new academic credits now.
The three courses are going live as I type this. If you find typos or other errors, please let us know -- we're moving much faster than usual through the editing process, so mistakes are bound to happen. Also, if you have ideas or suggestions for changes, send those to us as well. If I've learned anything as Headmaster, it's that no course is ever actually complete.
A huge thanks to my staff and our special guest star: Turel "I'm good, no now I'm evil, no wait I'm good again" Sorenn who is responsible for large chunks of the Jedi and Gray Jedi courses/exams. Thanks!
Also: a reminder! Applications for CORE Professor are due to me and Ood by 11:59pm EDT on Saturday, September 5. No rank requirements, just a fast turnaround, good work ethic, and solid ideas needed. See my last report for more details.

Woo! New courses, taken two of them and might wait a bit before doing the third but get in all the apps
Nice nickname, Turel.
Cool.
Nice Job Turel! I am amazed by your work!
Thank you guys!
All three taken, let's see how I do.
Speaking as a total noob to the club here, I've got to say this is really cool stuff. The continuous adding of solid, new content to immerse yourself in is absolutely top notch. It definitely motivates me to jump in, get involved, and do what I can to keep this awesome community moving forward.
Anyways - a lot of words to say, awesome work!!
Good job. More toys for me
This is so going on my email signature.
Also if you're reading this APPLY FOR PROFESSOR yes you!
Oh hell, forgot i'm grading this stuff for now....sorry for waiting periods
Dacien: Any idea how this will work with the Philosophy Maven or is that still TBD?
Turel: What, me?! ...ok. I VOLUNTEER AS TRIBUTE!
I'd assume the wording changes from 'Any three Order CORE exams (not including Dark Brotherhood Basics)' to 'All three Order CORE exams (not including Dark Brotherhood Basics)' until the two mundane COREs are released at which point it would be 'Any three Order CORE exams (not including Dark Brotherhood Basics)' again :P
But I'm just a grouchy old bum making assumptions, haha.
Teikhos: I'm leaning towards changing the current Philosophy Maven into a "Legends" Maven and creating a new Philosophy Maven that will include the three new COREs + philosophy 1 & 2. That way, anyone who earned the Philosophy maven under the old COREs will get the shiny new Legends maven, but they will still be able to earn the "new" Philosophy maven by taking the new COREs. I'll have more details on this very soon.
