Legacy - Wealthy, stunning, comes from well known families and have parents who attended Spence for all four years of their collage year and moved on to do great things. They have ruled the school forever and are definably not thrilled about 'Nouveaus' taking over their school. They are the ones who started the term Nouveau and use it as an insult to the new students. These students are usually the ones who don't have to work hard for their grades and are naturally smart. They are the ones you'll see curing cancer or finding a solution to world hunger.

Nouveau - Comes from any class really, these are the students who's parents didn't go to Spence and aren't basically bred to be amazing. They can come from the same world as the Legacies, be just as rich but still the Legacies will forever look down on them. These students are still smart because only the truly amazing students get into Spence. The term Nouveau is not one these students would use because it is what the Legacies labeled them as and it's used as an insult.

First Year - Since Spence only allows in certain age groups as First Years are ages 17, 18 and 19. Some students don't start out as first years. Of course all the Legacies go to Spence from year one but Nouvous are transfers from other schools.

Second Year - Since Spence only allows in certain age groups as Second Years are ages 18, 19 and 20. Of course all the Legacies go to Spence from year one but Nouvous are transfers from other schools so even if they are second years then it's still their first year in Spence. But if your a Legacy and your in year two then you've already been here for a year.

Third Year - Since Spence only allows in certain age groups as Third Years are ages 19, 20 and 21. Of course all the Legacies go to Spence from year one but Nouvous are transfers from other schools so even if they are third years then it's still their first year in Spence. But if your a Legacy and your in year two then you've already been here for two years.

Fourth Year - Since Spence only allows in certain age groups as Fourth Years are ages 20, 21 and 22. Of course all the Legacies go to Spence from year one but Nouvous are transfers from other schools so even if they are fourth years then it's still their first year in Spence. But if your a Legacy and your in year two then you've already been here for three years and your on you last year whether your a Nouveau or a Legacy.

Administrative Board Member - There are three of these members and they make all the executive decisions. A lot of people are surprised to find that all three of them are females and all three are young enough to be fourth years at Spence. But don't take them for granted, they are smart and have quite a standing in society. They come from the most powerful families in history, the three families who started the school so many years ago. They are the three who interview all the new students together and re interview all the legacies on their own, one on one. Usually their quite nice and cone even be found wandering the halls sometimes.

The term Nouveau is not one these students would use because it is what the Legacies labeled them as and it's used as an insult. As much as they seem to hate the Legacies in return they just want to be accepted. Even though are larger in numbers they had absolutely no standing in the school.

11•16•2008 Okay so other then having a new character and member of the moment there isn't much to report. Viv and I have been brainstorming some contests to come like fan fiction contests or maybe art, who knows. We'll get around to those but until then keep up the good work guys, please advertise and keep inviting new members to join us!

her bio
thread of interest
Vivian never ceases to amaze me, she's one of the best examples of a legacy and I always enjoy reading her threads.

his bio
thread of interest
Desmond has been here almost every day since joining Spence. She is a pleasure to be around and seemed to have made friends with everyone. So she can have the spotlight on her for a bit, plus you should check out her thread with Vivian, it's rather amusing XD.
