Yes, we all yearn for a true, brick and mortar edifice to house this great institution of magickal learning. We will have to wait a bit longer for it. Indeed, at one time there WAS such a physical structure where classes of the sort were offered to very fortunate students of the magickal arts. Outwardly it was a modest space set in a commercial setting located on the enchanted Long Island in the kingdom of New York. In time it became necessary for this unique school to take on an incorporeal 'cyberspace' form. Here it enjoys a Renaissance, but in a form that can be accessed from anywhere on the planet.
The "campus" of the Institute of Applied and Theoretical Magick is real in every way that matters to the seeker after true wisdom and power. There are real people behind these pages and they are imparting golden nuggets of knowledge and experience gleaned over a lifetime of practicing the magickal arts. Do you not agree that the value of any school comes from the caliber of its teachers and not from wood and stone structures? Is not the student's mind the "place" where learning occurs? In that sense the walls, corridors and labs of this Institute exists on that grand 'campus' between your ears! In this modern age of online colleges and accredited degrees earned while sitting in front of a home computer, the concept of a campus-less campus is no longer so strange.
Feel free to wander the "grounds" of this campus without boundary and fence. Get to know the other students and our distinguished instructors. Walk this magickal path with us until the road takes you elsewhere.
