[QUOTE:notes/assignment]Years: 1987-1997
Focus: Harry Potter, getting to Hogwarts and his Hogwarts years, Defeat of Voldemort

Questions:

To the Dursleys: Did you expect Harry to develop his abilities, even though you tried to prevent it?

To Rubeus Hagrid: You were the one sent to bring Harry to Hogwarts. Had you had any idea of how important and powerful he was going to become, even though you had knowledge of his past?

To Harry himself: Would you have done everything the same way if you had known you were going to have to sacrifice yourself to save everyone else from the beginning (Even though Voldemort's spell ended up only destroying the Horcrux he had unknowingly put into you)?

Then she sat back, to see what Mari would think of her work, and feeling at least a little better that she'd have something to show when the discussion was over. And she glanced at the gramophone again, curious about the fact that apparently the professor had turned the volume up again, and listening to the song that was playing. After a few seconds of listening in silence, she found herself almost unconsciously singing along, softly, but in a clear voice. "Midnight, not a sound from the pavement. Has the moon lost her memory? She is smiling alone . . ."

Mariska looked over at Elizabeth's paper, and decided that her time period had definitely been far to vague to discuss. She read over the questions, thinking that Elizabeth was definitely the better student in this class by far. " Good questions." She said, feeling very much out of her league in the class. She resolved to be better next time; However she figured she'd have to read Hogwarts: A History about twice to be as good as her friend. She read over the questions, thinking about what they could discuss when she heard Elizabeth begin singing a song, one she had heard her sing before. Not knowing the words, Mari simply hummed absentmindedly along with the other girl, her eyes still on the parchment as she did.
