>>>> The name 'Professor R.J.Lupin' was stamped across one corner *in 
peeling letters*.  He was obviously a Professor somewhere else before 
coming to Hogwarts, at least at some point since he graduated in 
1978, or the letters wouldn't be peeling off his case. <<<<<<<


Aggie:
Bit of a twee theory but perhaps he wanted to be a teacher when he 
was at school, so when he finished he was bought the brief case as a 
graduation present.  This was the first time he'd been able to use 
it!!!

Did you mean 1978?  He would only have been about 11!!! LOL!  (Sorry, 
i'm nit picking!)


DuffyPoo:

Nitpicking as well...If this was the first time he'd been able to use it, why would the letters be peeling? ;-)

Nope, I meant 1978.  I was using the Lexicon that says Lupin was born in 1960 and attended Hogwarts from 1971 to 1978.  I'm simply too lazy to try to figure it out myself - especially when those Lexicon people have already done the work.  Is this incorrect?  It also shows James as graduating in 1978 and I thought they were the same age?  They took O.W.L.s at the same time, along with Sirius, Peter and Snape.
