Archaeologists at Hogwarts

Chapter 50 School Newspaper
The school newspaper reporting the interview was printed soon, thanks to the help of Headmaster Dumbledore. After all, Toby didn't have many acquaintances in the British wizarding world.

Professor Binns was indeed the only professor not interviewed who cared little about anything other than teaching.And Dumbledore did not accept the interview because he was no longer in charge of teaching.

But the school newspaper still has more than 30 pages printed, and every student has a copy, including the professors, including those who are not in charge of the courses, such as the librarian Mrs. Greg, and Castle Keeper Filch.

Fortunately, the school newspaper only needs to be published once a year. Otherwise, no matter how prestigious the principal is, he would not be able to spend too much money from the school board's pocket.

This is not because the school board does not support Principal Dumbledore's decision, but because they have learned a lesson about the school newspaper, and this lesson is still related to a student named Gilderoy Lockhart .

Lockhart had begged the headmaster to start a school newspaper when he was a student, just to see his own name printed in it.

Since then, the board of directors has been somewhat cautious about the decision of the school newspaper.

Because the current school newspaper only needs to be printed once a year, plus the special significance of this interview - to strengthen the connection between students and professors (this is why Principal Dumbledore will fight for the opportunity, he thinks this kind of connection is very rare Yes.), the printing of this school newspaper is very exquisite, and it can even be regarded as a manual related to the professor, and the name is more simply "Hogwarts Teachers' Appreciation Club Newsletter".

In this series of interviews, each professor has a completely different style and tells different things -

Dean Flitwick is a very interesting professor. He generously told the process of participating in the dueling competition that year, including how he won the championship that year.

He thinks that Professor Haimo has a certain reason for the idea of ​​reducing the level of magic power, because he has continued to pay attention to the duel competition later, and the occurrence of powerful ancient magic has indeed become less and less.

Professor Flitwick also told an interesting story about the sorting ceremony. He was almost sorted into Gryffindor College, and Professor McGonagall was also almost sorted into Ravenclaw College. Their college life They almost switched to each other's paths. For this reason, the two also discussed whether the other party almost became the dean of another college. Both of them found this possibility very interesting.

Finally, Professor Flitwick encouraged those students who were not valued or even discriminated against.He used himself as an example—from birth, he became a second-class citizen in the wizarding world because of his physical characteristics, and since he stepped into the Hogwarts castle, he has been constantly scrutinized by the people around him gaze.

Ultimately Professor Flitwick believes that these stares are not purely malicious, but more caused by ignorance-people hope that the people around them are simple enough so that they can understand each other more easily, and be understood.It is difficult to get these people to admit that people are complex.

Dean Sprout of Hufflepuff is a professor of herbal medicine and has a wealth of knowledge. Most of her interviews are related to interesting plants, such as the dancing yello flower, and the starry night tree that looks like a star map once it blooms flower.

In addition, she also mentioned the friendship with Professor McGonagall. They met when they were in school. According to her, Professor McGonagall has always been the best student in the same grade.

Professor McGonagall also mentioned Dean Sprout and praised her as a very inclusive person.Professor McGonagall also talked about some knowledge related to Transfiguration. Fortunately, she didn't turn this interview into a complete classroom. She also talked about some of her life in the Ministry of Magic (Professor McGonagall once graduated. Served at the Ministry of Magic for a while, only to return to Hogwarts later).

Apart from these things, the one she mentioned the most was Quidditch. She herself was a member of the Gryffindor Quidditch team at school, and she participated in an extremely important competition in the seventh grade. The results of each match will determine the Quidditch Cup.As a result, Professor McGonagall was thrown into a concussion because of the opponent's foul, and several ribs were broken.

It was also mentioned in the interview that when Professor McGonagall said this, her eyes were about to burst into anger. She yelled "Gryffindor must win" several times in the office, and finally expressed her dissatisfaction with this year's Quest. Looking forward to the Diqi season.

According to the student who happened to pass by the office, he also heard the shouts of the interviewers, and he was sure that the person who interviewed Professor McGonagall was the captain of the Gryffindor team, Wood, and the team's Chaser Angelina. · Johnson, the atmosphere in the whole office was ignited.

What's interesting is that in the interview, Snape expressed his disdain for the Gryffindor team, and he didn't think anyone could shake Slytherin's momentum to win this year's House Cup. Consecutive crown.

He praised Slytherin House in the interview, and mentioned his yearning for Defense Against the Dark Arts in passing, as if casually mentioning that he had applied for the position for many years, but had never None of them got what they wanted.

And when the question involved Toby Highmore, a former old classmate, Snape immediately went uncharacteristically and severely belittled Professor Highmore, making the two seem like sworn enemies.

Coincidentally, the last interview with the dean was followed by an interview with the professor of ancient magic——Toby Highmore.

This interview is the most shocking——Professor Highmore explained the reason for being so strict at the beginning: because he didn't think students, especially first-year freshmen, could accept ancient magic knowledge well, so he The requirements are so strict—the result surprised him. The students actually did it. Under the double threats of the tutors and the pre-class test, the students could perfectly remember the magic circle taught by Professor Haimo. Even Marcus Flint managed to do both.

And the students also knew another reason for Professor Haimer's sternness, which was all derived from his personal experience.Although the students couldn’t take pictures due to limited conditions, the students couldn’t see the injury on Professor Haimer’s leg with their own eyes, but they can know the dangers of ancient magic from the text alone, and almost all of them are fatal. Professor Haimer may also be the only one who survived down archaeologists.

In addition to Professor Haimer, there is another professor who has attracted the attention of many people——Professor Quirrell.

Hermione's preparations were perfect. She no longer entangled Professor Quirrell's status as a professor of Defense Against the Dark Arts, but asked him about his previous experience as a professor of Muggle Studies.In Hermione's opinion, this course is really interesting, such as the description of the plane - "super-large steel owl".

Another interviewed student, Harry, expressed deep sympathy for Professor Quirrell's student experience. He can fully understand Professor Quirrell's thoughts, because he himself grew up under bullying.Finally, he encouraged Professor Quirrell to realize his dream, just like the day Harry found out that he was a wizard.

For the first time in Quirrell's life, apart from the sorting ceremony, he had received so much attention.

Faith, also will be shaken a little bit.
