History

The Tildes Skills School was founded in 3750 (JY) as the Dukes Skills Centre at Universitus, named after Halas Dukes, the founder of the school. The school was founded primarily to educate Universians in the arts, as the University was not highly reputed in the aesthetics. The school had originally not been intended as a college in which students could select a major, but rather a secondary institute for those also attending Universitus for academic reasons. In 3891 (JY), after substantial donations from Jon R. Tildes, the college made several large acquisitions in both stadiums, land, and faculty, and eventually offered Aesthetics as a major course concentration in 3900. By 4000, the college offered three major concentrations in the Arts, Music, and Athletics, and thousands of specific majors in these areas. The donations from Tildes eventually led his name replacing Dukes' as part of the name of the college in 4055. In the next 50 Jevian Years, Tildes Skills School quickly grew to become the most prominent school in Jey for all areas of its concentration, and admission into the school is commonly a desire of many aspiring artisans, musicians, and athletes in Jey.
