I know there's probably loads of harry potter fans at claremont so i was wondering if anyone would be interested in starting a muggle quidditch team. i know of some other colleges that have games around 4 times a year so it wouldn't be very time consuming. muggle quidditch is hilarious, go to

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Muggle_Quidditch
or youtube.com to watch videos

for more info. and yes, muggle quidditch is played on broomsticks but this is optional, depending on how stupid you want to look ; ) if we get enough people from each school then we can play for the quidditch cup and probably get funding to go play other schools around the country

Do you think they would really fund us to go on trips to play quidditch?

My god, it's genius!

"In Muggle Quidditch the Snitch is most often a human being. The Snitch, after release, is usually allowed to roam an area beyond the playing field. When played on a college campus the range is often the entire campus."

Sounds amazing.

i think the admissions officer told me that if anyone wants to start a new club, then they get $150 for funding. so if we get a team from each school then that's $600 total. and if we get enough people, like at least 40, and there's a lot of attention, then we could probably get money to go play other schools on the east coast. that's what happened at middlebury and bucknell college
