Hogwarts is a school of magic and witchcraft from the famous series of books by Joan Rowling about a little wizard with a scar - Harry Potter. There are four faculties in this school, each with its own history and a certain type of people. Hogwarts faculties were formed by four magicians and named after them.
Gryffindor
The hat ranked this faculty as those who, in addition to all other advantages, distinguished such qualities as honesty, nobility and courage. Gryffindors are distinguished by their determination to fight for truth and love, no matter what it costs them. But back to the origins of this faculty.
The founder is
Godric Gryffindor, who is also the founder of the Hogwarts school itself. Godric most valued courage in people. A prerequisite before enrolling in Hogwarts departments is the test that the hat conducts. The distribution hat is the brainchild of Godric Gryffindor. It was created with the goal of determining which faculty of a particular student should attend Hogwarts. Wearing a head, she is able to read thoughts and determine the aspirations of future students. Hogwarts faculties are closely related, because the knowledge on each of them is the same, the differences are only in personalities. Dean of Gryffindor - Professor Minevra McGonagall, part-time deputy director and teacher of transfiguration.
Slytherin
Very ambitious people, purposeful and self-confident fell into this faculty. Contrary to popular belief, Slytherins are not evil, just these people are very stubborn and firmly moving towards their goal. Hogwarts faculties are filled with different people, Slytherin is not an exception, but still the opinion that only evil people are sent to him is wrong. Slytherins do only what they consider useful. The founder of Slytherin is Salazar Slytherin, and the deans of this faculty are Professors Severus Snape and Horace Slughorn. Severus was a teacher of potions and then Defense from the Dark Arts, Horace was also a teacher of potions.
Hufflepuff
The dispensing hat sent to this faculty, as a rule, pacifists. Hufflepuffs are very peaceful people who are easy to offend, although they do not show it. They are the greatest opponents of violence, because they love nature and believe that there must be a balance everywhere that can be easily destroyed by cruelty. Very kind and generous students study at this faculty. They are not as sociable as others, but they open up easily and feel happy with friends.
The founder is Penelope Hufflepuff. Dean - Professor Pomona Stebel, a professor of traology
Ravenclaw

The students of this faculty had extensive knowledge of almost everything, but could calmly concentrate on the subject at the moment. At the same time, the positive and negative quality of the students of this faculty is that they can hide their real emotions, giving out at the same time those that others want to see. The founder of this faculty is Candida Ravenclaw. And the dean is a spell tutor, Filius Flitwick.
