Rowling’s world of witchcraft and wizardry provides a window into the human psyche and the mysteries of science. Students and their housemates will examine the human and wizarding world through weekly quizzes and one final presentation on topics related to: the universal appeal of magic; Quidditch as a sport; invisibility; travel through time and by floo; the unnatural biology of magical creatures; teenage angst; friendships; and romance; the nature of evil; and potions.
