Mistress of Novices
From A Wheel of Time Wiki
The Mistress of Novices is the Aes Sedai responsible for the discipline and well-being of Novices and Accepted in the White Tower.
The Mistress of Novices is expected to be a hard woman, though most are kind as well, but that will not save the novice a hair when she is being punished. She typically doles out physical punishments, like switching, though manual labor and humiliation are also used. The mistress She is also responsible for bringing Novices to the test for Accepted. She is expected to care for their Novice charges, and less so for the Accepted.
Accepted that are sent to her are often punished more severely because they are expected to know their place and the rules.
Aes Sedai can even be sent to her for a penance, though it is rare and ultimately humbling for the Aes Sedai. This practice has become more frequent after Elaida took over the Amyrlin Seat.
