Hiya guys and gals! It's time for another BWU, and I'm the person tasked with writing this one. Do you have a snack? I'll wait while you grab one. 
School News!
We are now in the break/revision week (as of tomorrow).
Professors, all lessons should be posted, a makeup section area should exist, and you should be catching up on grading. Please try to keep up with grading. It's especially important as we head towards the end of the year to ensure that the right students are named as the winners for their house!
Thank you for all of your hard work this semester!
Students, here's your last chance to finish up lessons. Earn those house points! Gryffindors, I'm looking at you.
OWL and NEWT professors: Please consider posting your exams a few days early to allow students the opportunity to complete them on time.
All exams should be posted on Monday, February 27!
More school news!!
It's almost graduation time!
If you have a 7th year, you have a message waiting for you from your Head of House. Please answer it. 
(Graduating) quidditch captains should also be sure to check out the discussion in the captain's area. Thank you!
Even more school news!!!
We've chosen a Headperson!
We received six applications for the position of Headmaster, and we'd like to take a moment to thank everyone who applied for the time and effort towards their application. It wasn't an easy decision.
In the end, we decided to go with Jesse's character, Katherine Alicastell. She will take over as Headmistress of HNZ during Y28. In order to avoid confusion, we won't be putting the character into the Headperson group until Y27 closes out. In the meantime, we are working with Jesse to get things going for Y28. I do want to give a big thank you to Donna, who roleplayed the Headmistress for quite some time, as we prepare to move forward with someone new.
Congratulations, Jesse!
