  The hex is just something written on her face, and it is a meek 
punishment for someone that got the headmaster thrown out: By not 
healing her, it could be a statement that students can *not* attack 
teachers. And in that case they are justified.

   For Slytherin being evil, or at least not worthy of trust, goes 
with them being primary ambitious. What I mean is that some 
Gryffindor can believe mainly in bravery and then in ambition, or in 
wit, and so on. The problem with Slytherin is that they place 
ambition as their primary quality, above moral or anything else. 
They are people that *live* for the ambition, and are not ambitious 
for their lives. Their fear have got the better of them and, for me, 
another trait of Slytherin house is cowardness. It is quite explicit 
with Lucious Malfoy, whose ambition brings him to a life time of 
kissing an half blood robes because he is afraid of change and of 
living.
