To quote Hermione in the first book:

(In the train on their way to Hogwarts for the first time)
... "Do either of you know what house you'll be in? I've been asking 
around and I hope I'm in Gryffindor, it sounds by far the best; I 
hear Dumbledore himself was in it, but I suppose Ravenclaw wouldn't 
be too bad..." ...
