I'm working on a new character that in his past attended MIT&T. I believe I would be able to manage this myself if I had the books, but I don't (the last Shadowrun book I set my hands on was SR2, and that was years ago), so I was wondering-what kinds of spells would an awakened character recieve training in while attending a school such as MIT&T? I know that spells over Force 2 wouldn't exactly be common (can't you get permits or something of that nature for them, though?), but not much more than that since I only have what I can glean from these boards, memory, or the Nsrcg3 to go by. Short descriptions would be very helpful, and if you're really that bored, I wouldn't mind learning about the kinds of initiations one could go through as part of being a student at MIT&T.

Thanks for the help, but that's not quite what I wanted-perhaps I should've aimed my question in a different direction.

The legal thing-well, it won't matter much by the time in the character's life that he'll be played, since all sorts of law enforcement folks will have been made aware of the 'crimes' he committed. Any of MIT&T's resistance to teaching a student more dangerous spells would've been lubricated with some cash from daddy.

Anywho, the main point of this post would be to try to figure out what sorts of academic spells there are-stuff a runner or person of 'active' lifestyle might be interested in, but which also might have an academic/learning bent. I'm not exactly sure what's out there (and won't be until I get my next paycheck and can buy some books), so I needed some help with that.
