I wonder... Maybe the destroying of the wand is just a ceremonial 
kind of practice during expulsion; you know, to seal the deal. I 
just hope Harry is careful; we know now that Harry needs to keep 
the wand he has, and destruction of his wand would be detrimental. Unless, of course, another wand could be made especially for Harry using another feather of Fawkes'? I'm not sure that this would work, though, as Fawkes has undoubtedly been reborn many times since the initial wands were made.

I can't remember; do they destroy the wands for any other crimes? Do they destroy wands before sending someone to Azkaban?
