Terminology
Every unexplained occurrence deserves a name, a shelf, and a tone of grave restraint.
Parafunormal studies, defined, documented, and filed under the proper classification.
Parafunormal Studies examines phenomena that exist between the paranormal and the profoundly silly.
Where paranormal research asks, "Is it real?" The Institute for Parafunormal Studies asks, "Has anyone completed the appropriate forms?"
The Institute was founded to establish standards, terminology, and acceptable margins of nonsense within the rapidly expanding field.
Inquiry
Claims are welcomed when accompanied by records, diagrams, or at minimum a confident witness.
Restraint
The Institute avoids panic unless panic has been approved by the relevant faculty committee.
