Eden listened to everyone and sat up a little straighter. Mph. She cleared her throat before speaking. "As for the student spotlight, to keep it from being a popularity contest around here--" she snorted, "We could have it be teacher nominated." She thought that was a good idea. She had been GOING to suggest student voted, but thus, POPULARITY CONTEST. And sometimes, the students that should have the spotlight were not....popular.

Mhmm.

She listened to the new girl, Jenna, speak, and liked the idea of textbooks..."What if we make the rewards for the winner of a writing contest...a few options? Lunch with a professor? Or--yeah, discount textbooks--though I don't know how realistic that would be, since we'd have to get into contact with Flourish and Blotts..." she trailed off, still sort of stumbling through her thoughts.

Then, she had an idea.

"Gabe--" she widened her eyes at him. "Gabriel--didn't you intern with Daily Prophet over the summer?" she asked softly. "What if one of the writing contests...the winner...I don't know, something in conjunction with the DP. Do you have good contacts with them?" she thought it was interesting to look into...and loads of students would be more interested in the DP were involved.
