Humanist Institutes

The role of a Humanist Institute, especially in the Benacian Union, is to educate and prepare individuals for leadership roles within the Nationalist and Humanist Party, as well as the wider community. These Institutes are highly selective, only accepting the best and brightest students from the preparatory schools. The education provided is rigorous and challenging, and is designed to produce graduates who are not only academically accomplished but also possess the necessary qualities of leadership, loyalty, and dedication to the principles of Humanism.

The internal structure of a Humanist Institute is hierarchical, with the Commandant of the Institute at the top, followed by Masters of Discipline, Punishments, Studies, and Indoctrination, as well as a Matron of the Wards and a Mistress of the Library. Each of these positions has several sub-positions or roles beneath them, such as Drill Instructors, Hall Monitors, Instructors, and Ward Monitors. These individuals are responsible for the day-to-day operations of the Institute, including the education and discipline of students.

The curriculum of a Humanist Institute is comprehensive, covering a wide range of subjects, including classical studies, the common tongue, engineering, humanities, languages, mathematics, and the sciences. The curriculum is designed to provide students with a well-rounded education, preparing them for leadership roles in any field. The instruction provided is rigorous, and the expectations for students are high. The academic curriculum is complemented by a strong emphasis on physical discipline and indoctrination, which includes instruction in the principles of Humanism, behavioural therapy, and political education.

In addition to the academic curriculum, students are also required to participate in various extracurricular activities, such as athletics, military training, and leadership development. These activities are designed to develop the students' physical and mental abilities, as well as their sense of loyalty and dedication to the community.

W ithin the Benacian Union, Humanist Institutes are also responsible for the selection of students to be retained by the Guild of Academicians and inducted into the halls of the Benacian Academy. The selection process is highly competitive, and only the most talented and dedicated students are accepted. Those who graduate from a Humanist Institute and are selected for the Academy are considered to be among the elite of the Benacian Union, and are destined for leadership roles in the Humanist Movement and the Union-State.
