To all students and faculty of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, as well as any alumni who like to keep up with school news: Greetings!
I am most pleased to say that the introduction of the Kolskey-Miggs brand daily journals to our student body has been most successful. Everyone is simply brimming with enthusiasm over them, and I am most proud that homework completion has been at an all-time high, thanks in part, I believe, to the reminders from professors delivered directly to the students’ journals. I do hope that this trend will continue throughout the rest of the school year and, indeed, on into the future.
A reminder to all students that any other brand of journal is forbidden by Educational Decree #329, and will be immediately confiscated by the staff and turned in to the Headmistress. We have already confiscated many illegal journal types, and we do request that everyone turn whatever is left in immediately. If a student is caught with contraband they will be punished, so it is always better to relinquish them voluntarily.
A further reminder of other contraband items includes all Weasley brand magical joke supplies, all copies of seditious papers such as the Quibbler, all Wizarding Wireless receivers, all copies of Muggle literature and other entertainment, etc. For a full list please see the book outside Mr. Filch’s office.
In other news, I am pleased to announce that the Muggleborn Registration Committee will be sending personnel to the school to aid me in discovering how Muggleborn students have come by their powers. It is our hope that starting investigations this early in a Muggleborn’s life will yield more honest answers than from adults, and allow us to root out the plague that has afflicted our most noble society. All students are required to cooperate with the officials of the Committee to the fullest extent. Anyone hindering the investigations will be punished most severely. Therefore, we introduce:
Educational Decree #330
All students with knowledge of Muggleborn children and their backgrounds in the school are required to come to the Headmistress and inform her immediately. Any students hindering the investigation will be punished and/or expelled from Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Any questions may be directed in writing to Dolores Jane Umbridge, Headmistress and High Inquisitor.
A reminder that any Muggleborn student who willingly comes forward to aid in the investigations will be treated with the utmost compassion and will be granted amnesty from expulsion. Remember, boys and girls, these investigations are to ensure the purity of your education and keep any undesirable elements from corrupting your thoughts and leading you astray. We want to ensure that our society remains pure and vibrant, and that we forever stay strong in that which defines us: our magic. Abide by the rules and you shall prosper.
Signed,
