It's time for another BWU! Hope you enjoy the catch up of what has been going on around the site. 
Break Week
That's right! Tomorrow, we head into break week/revision week/go crazy with catch up week/insert your fancy title for what this week is. By now, all lessons should be posted so we ask professors to please double-check that you've done so, and we also ask professors to use the time to catch up on grading. We'll be following up with PMs soon to offer reminders as needed. As always, if you need help, don't hesitate to reach out.
Students, now's the time to get those lessons completed!
Quidditch!
Another game has come and gone with Hufflepuff coming out the victors! Be sure to check out the calendar to see when the next game is scheduled (hint: it's next semester
)
Brightstone weekend: ending soon!
It's the last opportunity to finish your RPs and shopping before the area closes until the semester finishes. The area will close tomorrow morning EDT.
Fun events
The SDA is hosting their first ever 'capture the flag' game!
Join the game here or the ooc chat about the event here.
Honeydukes also hosted a fun 'decorate your own sugar skull' event. Now, we wait to see who the winner is!
Don't forget that your participation in events is what helps more events to get approval and happen across the site.
Lists
We have various lists to track different types of characters across site. If you have a character who is 'in training' for something - Auror, Healer, Animagus, Seer, etc. and needs to have that designation removed because they've completed training, please reach out to an admin so we can keep lists updated.
Thanks for reading! Have a great couple of weeks.

Emzies on break!
Our dear Emzies is getting married!
Which means, she will not be as active on the site throughout the month of July. If you need admin related help, please send messages to me.
For gradebook related issues, please contact Nick. For other general support, please contact any member of staff except for Emzies. Join us in congratulating Emzies here.
Apps will remain open during this duration but there may be a slightly longer process for them to be reviewed.
Shop apps!
We have some new shops that may come out of retirement if we can find shop keepers for them. Check out the announcement and see if you have a character who might be suited.
Character Spotlight
For the month of July, the spotlight is on Marley Pattinson, Maria's character! Please join us in offering Maria a congratulations and check out her wonderful development.
Harry Potter Movie Re-watch 🎟
How long has it been since you last watched one of the movies? Nick is hosting a weekly re-watch of each movie. We encourage you to join the conversation and share your thoughts about your first (or tenth) time re-watching the movies and what has changed as you watch it now. And if you want to host a group re-watch, post in the topic to let us know!
