[HPforGrownups] Teachers' Housing (very very slight OoP reference)

Well, we know that the staff do live on the premises. We also know that
nobody is supposed to be able to apperate on school grounds. Now when Sirus
visitef Ron, Professor Macgonagal was there within a few minutes, this would
lead me to believe that the staff do live apart from the students but that
their living quarters are either in the same tower/or very close to the
student rooms.

I would also assume that the staff quarters would be protected by the usual
password protected gargolyes.

Quote for the day:
Systems Administration is the kind of job that nobody notices if you're
doing it well. People only notice when their systems are not working.

I don't think that most of the staff are _required_ live in apart from those
who might have duties that would need them to be there outside teaching
hours (Dumbledore, the four Heads of Houses, Hagrid, Pomfrey, Filch...)

The depiction of the Ministry in OoP with the staff arriving for work was
interesting and I would see similar methods being used by those Hogwarts
staff who don't live in (subject of course to the fact that they can't
Apparate in - perhaps those who prefer to Apparate arrive in Zabini's caff
in Hogsmeade and pick up a coffee and a bacon butty before strolling up to
work!)

JKR has hinted that more could be said about whether or not the professors
are or were married but to date nothing has aired in the books.

Cheers
