Of course. They want to make sure Satan pays his tuition fees like everyone else.

I liked their response.

"Even if we did want to summon Satan, it's not against university or union policy to do so, so it's still not really grounds to reject us,"

Do they also have a morality police and separate men and women in classes along with a strictly enforced dress code?

Possibly the objection was a joke? I wouldn't put it past the club to have filed it themselves.

Man, I was hoping Oz land was more sensible than that.

That's bizarre, usually magic clubs are approved pretty swiftly once someone bothers to make one. Even see them on the high school level, sometimes.

That's why when I was in high school, my friends and I kept our occult club a secret society. We were thereby able to get away with 'on purpose' summoning the Prince of Darkness and Cthulhu. From what I recall, the wind got strong that day.

For those interested in occult rituals to summon Satan, there is the Compendium Rarissimum that gives a circle and seal for Satan, as well as the Testament of Solomon (although here the name is rendered Sathon)

S. Connolly also gives a general ritual for invoking demons using their sigils, including a sigil for Satan.

Satan is also summoned during the Abramelin Operation.

There are also a few different ways of summoning related demons like Lucifer, Belial, Beelzebub, Azazel, and Samael in a variety of different grimoires, but I have omitted them because they aren't always considered to be the same being as Satan. Each of these are more common, though, so the handful of mentions of genuinely summoning Satan are quite rare in occultism.

So? Satan might push for greater standards in academia. I mean, I can see how that may be a problem for an academic establishment seemingly going in a retrogressive direction, but..

That's not a valid excuse.
