This car-part dragon sculpture is at the south end of the Oklahoma Institute for Muggle Studies. It is at the northwest corner of Boyd and Elm, just west of Campus Corner on the north side of the University of Oklahoma.
Information on the institute is provided on two markers at the main gate:
Established and built in 1930 by Lord Stephen G. Teel, The Oklahoma Institute for Muggle Studies is a foreign exchange school and part of the non-magical studies curriculum. Students arrive at the institute from eleven worldwide wizarding schools regulated by the International Confederation of Wizards. Studies involve the history and daily lives of Muggles, how they can live without magic, and instead make use of electricity, technology, and science.

The Founder, Lord Teel, is from the famed Wizarding family Momoli in Crespano Del Grappa, Italy. He ran the school from 1930 until 1987. It was rumored that Lord Teel was the original inventor of the Time-Turner and in November of 1987, was suspended after the Ministry of Magic opened an investigation. Accusations arose that he had adapted a Time-Turner into a DeLorean automobile that, allegedly, suddenly materialized on school grounds. In 1989, after acquittal of all charges, he left to reestablish a muggle studies program at the Beauxbatons Academy of Magic in France. He returned after the Second Wizarding War to become current Headmaster of the Oklahoma Institute for Muggle Studies where he resides today.
