I've noticed several posts indicating that Hermione has the makings
of a Prefect. True, I agree that she would be excellent from what
I understand a Prefect to be. However, wouldn't it cause her a sort
of conflict of interest? In each book (with the possible exception of
Book 4) she participates or has knowledge of Harry's and/or Ron's rule
breaking. It seems to me that as Prefect one of her jobs would be to
enforce the Gryffindor (and Hogwarts) rules.

Another question: Does Hermione or Ron know about the Marauder map?
