Wizards & Muggles, or more colloquially, WizMug, is the William & Mary club dedicated to the celebration of the World of Harry Potter and all the creativity spawned from it. Members range from casual fans to hardcore nerds to fantastical creators and everything in between. Anyone with love for the Wizarding World is welcomed!
Weekly meetings, held on Wednesdays at 8:00 pm, are designed to be entertaining for every fan. We play games, have mock Hogwarts classes, discuss the story, and much more. We also have a few annual celebrations, including a Sorting Ceremony, a Deathday Party, a Yule Ball, bake off, and an End-of-Year Feast. We also do house bonding activities and interhouse competitions including competing with your house inside and out of club meetings to earn points and help your house win the house cup.
A few weeks after classes begin (or after the semester starts in the case of members joining Spring semester), all new members of WizMug are sorted into one of the four Hogwarts Houses: Gryffindor, Hufflepuff, Ravenclaw, and Slytherin. Once sorted, every member can earn points towards the House Cup, by creating fanart and fanfiction, winning games in club meetings, answering questions in the mock classes, wearing the house colors or Harry Potter memorabilia to the meetings, or even just regularly attending. At the end of the spring semester, the points are tallied up - and the winning house gains eternal glory...well, at least until the next Spring.
In the 2021 - 2022 school year, the winning house was Gryffindor!
