To the public, the XIG [Xavier Institute for the Gifted] is home to brilliant minds from across the world from preschool aged children to that of adults. The estate was left to Professor Charles Xavier by his father, Xavier wanted to ensure the future and decided on creating a boarding school with several levels of instruction available.

To those within the walls of the XIG, it serves as training ground for other mutants to be able to blend in and subsequently transition into society. There is no limit to the length of time one can stay at the estate as long as they follow ordinance. However, more experienced tenants are also expected to teach classes to give back in an area of their specialty.
