[MR] "Blue Scarfs" and "Free Scholars"?

[David Chessler]

It's the white scarf treaty. Blue scarves are "scholars" of the "academie
d'espee". Gold scarves are "free scholars." White scarfs are provosts. 

I still haven't fully restored my bookmarks but try this:

Academie d'Espee - Roster of Provosts

Atlantian Freescholars

I don't believe there is a formal list of the scholars. Most people get the
blue scarf when they authorize--most but not all.
Master Aedan says the list is "defunct"
