Once upon a time, a fine fake-leather Sofa served a Denmark Street detectives' office, enthusiastically cheering on the PIs every time it was sat upon. Tragically, following some minor bomb damage, the Sofa was discarded by its owners.
Happily, some cash-strapped Professors rescued it from the trash bin and, after a lot of TLC and adhesive vinyl, the Sofa was reborn. It now provides posterior respite for Faculty and Guests discussing their favorite books, film and television programs.
Spoiler warnings for The Running Grave

Chestnut Hill's Harry Potter Academic Conference Online for 2023.
Chestnut Hill College in Pennsylvania has sponsored an academic conference on Harry Potter since 2012, and I have attended and presented for eight of those years. This year, the conference is going to an online-only format, as it did during COVID and will alternate between online- and in-person going forward. This year is therefore a great opportunity for people all over to attend the conference, without the issue of travel expenses. At $15, it is far cheaper than any other academic conference you will find out there.
You can find out more about the history of the conference and see past programs here.
