Now that we can no longer debate whether Snape was really a 
Gryffindor, shunned by his housemates, I began to wonder about the 
other teachers. After all, perhaps very soon, there may need to be 
new appointments made for Head(s) of House.  Heads of House are 
chosen from former house members...so, who is the running for 
Slytherin and Gryffindor? I hope that any openings are due to 
promotions or change in careers and not to the ultimate 
sacrifice...but there is a war going on.

We know Hagrid was a Gryffindor...but with all the shenanigans that 
go on in Gryffindor with McGonagall as Head, it would become a real 
Animal House with Hagrid as Head!

Any other contenders?

Trelawney would make a terrible Head...but which House was hers?  
Ravenclaw? She lives in something of an ivory tower...but that's a 
stereotype that doesn't really fit Ravenclaw students. She's 
something of a duffer...but does that "really" describe 
Hufflepuffs?  She could be a Gryffindor...it took courage to be the 
13th member at the Christmas table. Or is she Slytherin?  Hmmm.  
Let's see, she got Dumbledore to hire her, even though he was going 
to eliminate divination from the cirriculum.  She has a nice safe 
place to live, even though she doesn't do such a great job at her 
job. When she was sacked not only did the Headmaster insist she keep 
her quarters, but the Deputy Headmistress, was openly nice to her!  
Cunning, don't you think?  Could Sibyll Trelawney be a very 
Slytherin Slytherin? Any thoughts?
