(still haven't figured out how to copy previous messages.)

Catlady makes a very good point about James 'history." We know that he,
Remus and Sirius ran around breaking rules like crazy, disappearing
under James invisibility cloak (presumably for mischief) and yet James
was head boy, thus presumably prefect.

There may be hope for Hermione being named Prefect or even Ron. someone
in book one said that James & Co. caused more trouble than anyone in
Hogwarts history (and then Hagrid says that Fred and George are in the
running) so James & Co. were clearly infamous in their time. Now it
seems a little unrealistic to me that he really would have been made
head boy with that kind of history, but he was. It says so clearly in
the book and doesn't appear to be questionable, so maybe students get
owls _after_ year four at the start of the summer to let them know that
they have been chosen as prefects. There may be hope for Ron and Hermione.
