Hi everyone! We had a rather busy few weeks, so we figured it would be a good time to update you on everything. Hope you're ready for it. ^_^
End of Semester Already?!
Can you believe it? We're nearly at the end of the semester already. That means that you only have a little bit of time to get lessons completed before exams. If you have a professor, please make sure that you have posted all of your lessons. It's also not a bad idea to catch up on grading now. :)

Costume Contest: Results
The results are in and points have been awarded!
Best Costume: Overall: Avie Mitchell as Spiderman
Best Costume: Muggle-Inspired: Rhiannon McGowan as a doctor

Congratulations! :party:

Hogwarts Monthly
With Sage Ottavi at the helm this year, the Hogwarts Monthly has rolled out its first issue for the year. Feel free to have your characters read it and comment. There’s some interesting stuff in there! :D

Hiring Shopkeepers
We are currently looking for a shopkeeper for Flourish & Blotts. If you feel like you're up to the task of having a shopkeeper, feel free to [member]apply[member]. :)


We partied hard!
The celebration for HNZ's 10th birthday has officially closed, but all of the topics are still up. They've just found new homes ;) Feel free to keep the party going by giving us your top 10s, including your birthday picture for HNZ, or sharing your favorite memories. Just because the area is closed doesn't mean that we have to stop posting. :)

OOC Superlatives!
The OOC superlatives winners have been posted! :cool: Check out the results and let us know what you think. Did you win something? Did you win something surprising? Want to congratulate all of the winners? We hope you do. Head to the topic to grab your cool banner if you have one.
Special thank you to the site staff who tallied votes and worked on banners. You guys are awesome!

Birthday Graphic Competition
Since HNZ was turning 10, we figured it needed some special avatars. After all was said and done, the site voted Jesse's graphic as the best! Congrats to him! :party:

All of the avatars have been uploaded to a special new Birthday Avatar folder. Check 'em out! :cool:

Social Media
We've added a new section to the profile fields. Now, if you'd like, you can feel free to add your Instagram and SnapChat names. Let's get connected even more! :D

Applications
Donna and I have been busy bees with processing applications, and there have been quite a lot of them sent in of late. We would like to thank you all for your patience as we process them.

Go Mad for GMAD!
It’s June 1st which means that it is Global Moderator Appreciation Day on HNZ! I hope that you’ll join us in thanking all of the GMs, those that used to be on staff as well as those that still are, for their wonderful, hard work.
