WHAT IS RUSH
The Royal University of Scir-Hafoc (RUSH) of the Kingdom of Calontir was
chartered in May of AS XIX (1984). Our first session was held November of 1984
in the Barony of Three Rivers. The work of many gentles over the intervening
years has given the Kingdom an established institution for scholarly pursuits.
Our name, Scir-Hafoc, comes from an Old English term meaning "bright falcon" and
is used with the express permission of its creator, Margaret Clark. The acronym
"RUSH" seems an apt description of the behavior of the RUSH board on the day of
a session. We ask that our name be used only in connection with events planned
and executed with the participation of the RUSH Board of Regents.
Kingdom RUSH sessions are currently held quarterly, in rotation among the
geographic campuses of the Kingdom. A broad spectrum of classes on various
aspects of pre-17th century culture, and about the Society itself, are taught.
Individuals may take these classes for enlightenment and enjoyment, or they may
work toward a "degree". RUSH is not an accredited institution and cannot confer
credentials in the modem world.
Additionally, RUSH credits may be earned through classes held outside the
Kingdom RUSH sessions.
Any person willing to register and pay fees may attend RUSH. National
membership is not required. People new to the Society will find RUSH classes
particularly beneficial. Specific instructions for registration for each
session are included in the flyer that appears in the MEWS and at the website
www.calontir-rush.org.
