It Happened at a Boarding School

Programming 4 (Westminster 2)

Saturday October 6, 2018 - 2:00 pm to 2:50 pm


Why are so many YA books, movies, and tv shows set in boarding schools? Why do they lend themselves to fantasy and SF? Why are we as readers obsessed with the boarding school mystique? Are the stone floors of dungeon classrooms really impervious to spilled potions? These are only a few of the important questions that will be discussed and agonized over in this riveting and academically challenging panel. All those who fail the follow-up quiz will be frogged.
