Royal Charter

Let all the people of the known world be advised that the organization of learning known as the Royal University of Scir-Hafoc is hereby chartered under the authority and protection of the Crown and Throne of Calontir, as a Royal University with all traditional autonomy from civil political authority, save for the direct and express authority of the Crown of Calontir, whose authority shall be exercised only if the University should seriously depart from the goals, spirit, and purpose of the Society for Creative Anachronism, Inc.

Be it also ordered that the University shall be governed by a Chancellor and Board of Regents, and that all policy shall ultimately be determined by that Chancellor and Board of Regents, that the University shall be self-supporting and exempt from taxation in all localities, and that the University shall enjoy the right to establish such by-laws as are necessary for its continued operation.

Let all scholars be enjoined to serve their studies with all diligence, faithfulness and sincerity and that in all things and above all things, they ever observe unity, peace, and mutual charity.

Done by Our Hands this twenty-seventh day of May, Anno Societas XIX, sitting on Our Thrones in Our Barony of the Forgotten Sea.
