Student Teacher - Original Quote (was 'Which character will become a teacher?')

All right, after listening to a RealPlayer hour long interview, I finally
found the actual quote on the student-teacher thingy. I think it’s quite
clear JKR means that one of Harry’s classmates will become a teacher after
graduating, certainly not in book five. She also specifies that it’s not
Ron. Anyway, here it is:


AUD – Audience
RAD – Radio Announcer
JKR – Author

AUD: Thank you so much for taking our call, I'm actually calling from our
classroom, a sixth grade class.

JKR: Hi, hi everyone.

AUD: Anyway, it's very exciting, we all just love Harry Potter. We're
curious, uhm, well, first of all, we can't wait for books four, five, six
and seven. But after that we're curious as to whether Harry is going to have
a life after Hogwarts or if Harry might be maybe a Hogwarts teacher.

JKR: Uhm... Well, because all your kids said hello so nicely in the
background, I'm going to give you information I haven't given anyone else
and will tell you that one of the characters, one of Harry's classmates,
though it's not Harry himself does end up a teacher at Hogwarts. But it is
not maybe the one you think, hint hint hint. So yes, one of them does end up
staying at Hogwarts.

RAD: Cathleen, want to have a guess as to who it is?

AUD: A guess? They say Ron.

JKR: No... It's not Ron. See I can't see Ron as a teacher, no way.
