The
Telegraph reports that the Magdalen College Junior Common Room at Oxford
University has been renamed “Gryffindor,” in honor of the Harry
Potter series. Students voted to make this change because they believe
their school represents some of the classic qualities of Gryffindor House, such
as “courage, daring, nerve and chivalry.” This is the first time the
common room has been renamed in 550 years.
