"evil" McGonagall??

[Marilyn Peake]

Hi, Beth,

Like I said, I like McGonagall; but, in real life, it is sometimes 
the very strict or the very high-achieving who join the dark side for 
what they feel are "noble" reasons.  I'm assuming that that's why 
George Lucas had Anakin start out as a high-achieving student who, 
due to his ideals and his love for his wife, went over to the dark 
side.  I'm not expecting that McGonagall would do this, but was 
trying to come up with a reason why she might.

Best Wishes,
Marilyn

Minerva McGonagall to be the object of such libelous speculation.  
Yes, she is strict.  But I do not see how anyone could be more loyal 
to Dumbledore than she.  She has a very tender side which she tries 
so hard to hide.
