= New Gibson University =

Founded in 2310, New Gibson University has become somewhat notable throughout the decades it has operated teaching almost everything, however, focusing on the fields of engineering, mining, botany, and even xenobiology. Initially having their campus in Fallanland, New Gibson University was a conglomerate of several community colleges that eventually unified following New Gibson’s recovery from the Crisis of 2294. It now has campuses throughout both Ovanstads and Understads, with its primary facilities housed in the Hengsha Biodome following its construction shortly after the independence of the Republic of Biesel in 2452.

Most of the collegiates at New Gibson University are from New Gibson, with very few interstellar students having ever actually attended. It is due to this that the university has developed a somewhat unwelcoming attitude to non-locals attending, with most of them dropping out after a few months. While outwardly the New Gibson University advertises an enjoyable campus life, social media portrays it in a much different light - with informal exposes on the bullying of non-locals.

New Gibson University isn’t just notable for its academics and is the home of the Gibsonite Greimorians - a sports team that has risen to prominence since it began involving itself in inter-collegial sports. It is not uncommon for those having attended New Gibson University to chant, “Grei-Grei-Greimorians!” at sports events. The Gibsonite Gremorians are cheered on by their mascot, Gabby the Greimorian, an anthropomorphic greimorian with four arms and a big smile. It is not uncommon to see supporters of the Gibsonite Greimorians wearing greimorians-like accessories, blue face paint, and sporting oversized blue varsity jackets
