Prof. Amaunet wishes to remind all students that images used in forum signatures and avatars must G-rated. It has been noticed that some images are of a more adult nature (for example, certain Anime illustrations) and are thus too suggestive to be used in HOL. Students are responsible for the content of their own signatures and images regardless of by whom they were made. All students are therefore requested to review their signatures and avatars and remove/change the image(s) if they seem inappropriate.

Congratulations to the following Hufflepuff House award winners for the month of September:

House Spirit Award: Felicia Hartwick
Order of Helga (Hard Work): Emma Pacifica
Order of Helga (Creativity): Dom McDermott
Badger By Another Name Award: Kat Shields

Still more congratulations go out to the following Ravenclaw House award winners:

Ravenclaw of the Month: Anastacia Black
Hawking HOLer: Tinuvie Levante
Bronze Ambition: Narcia Bellamy
Blue Virtue: Caitlin Boag
