Niamh,
It appears to be a trend among wizarding academies. One of the professors who are employed here are one of the beasts, too. Then again, our Headmistress has a questionable way of running things. She'll employ anyone, it seems. You would especially hate my Divination teacher. I have no doubt I could teach the class myself. I'm certain he reads from a textbook behind the desk. If it weren't for furthering my abilities, I'd likely drop the course based on him alone.
Thankfully, some of the professors here are redeemable, if just barely. Only a year until I graduate and can be away from here. The odd thing is, even though I'm a Seer, I'm still not sure what I want to do with my life. It's funny how that works out.
