Draco at Hogwarts (was Harry's Summer Holidays Post Voldy)

Well, maybe "harrassed" is the wrong word; maybe I mean "ostracized"--
I suspect even many of the other Slytherins are not going to want to 
associate with Draco.  It will be at this point that he wil discover 
that any "friends" he made because of his money, influence (via daddy 
Malfoy), or scheming might not want anything more to do with him.
