The Proctor was a senior staff member at the Jelucan preparatory academy during the Age of the Empire. One such proctor was a human man who wore a black uniform. When Thane Kyrell and Ciena Ree were sixteen years old, the Proctor officiated over a sorting ceremony that assigned cadets to the various Imperial Academies scattered throughout the galaxy. He began by alphabetical order before assigning Thane and Ciena to the Royal Imperial Academy on Coruscant, which supplied officers to the Imperial Navy.
