Is it really her 50th anniversary? I'm fairly sure that Professor Slughorn has been here even longer, by at least ten or so years... if it's also his 60th anniversary we could make the Revue in honour of them both, with emphasis on the Headmistress, of course.
You're right about Professor Carpenter - she doesn't know it, but I've always seen Divination as "acting" class, because really, it's all about putting on the best performance. I even told Professor Dolohov about this and he found it terribly amusing. I think he would be in support of the Revue idea, actually, but he's new so his support might not count for so much as getting in the Heads of House. Then again, he's awfully important to the Lord Protector, and so is Professor Raz.
Do you suppose Lav or Parvati might talk to Hooch? I don't know her well at all and she's so... gruff.
