...HUDS is sensitive to the need to further reform its producers. In an e-mail sent as this piece was going to press, Ms. Burgess assured me that “I and HUDS do not tolerate animal cruelty … We would never conduct business with any entity that would do such things.” Last week Mr. Mayer told me that HUDS is open to pursuing more humanely produced meats if students demand them, and suggested that soaring gas prices might make local pasture-fed meats more economical...

He breaks the news that I'm actually just a mudblood - a muggle, not a wizard, because my muggle mother had converted to Reform Judaism, not Orthodox. But I shouldn't despair, he says. There are good muggles and bad muggles, just as there are good and bad wizards. I could still play a (somewhat diminished) role in fighting evil...
