Archibald Stansfeld Belaney was born in September 1888 in Hastings, England, to a farmer family. His father wasted the family fortune in drinking. Some sources also suggest that his mother was only 13 years old when they were married. His parents separated in 1901, and his father left the country. Belaney was raised by his grandmother and two maiden aunts. He expressed an interest in nature and American Indians at an early age. He went to Hastings Grammar School, and at the age of 16 – due to his aunts' urging – left to work for a timber yard. He was fired when he dro ...

There are two surviving manuscript versions of The Owl and the Nightingale, one belonging to the British Library as BL MS Cotton Caligula A.IX, the other to Jesus College, Oxford, as Jesus College MS 29.

OWL examinations are administered to all Hogwarts students in their fifth year. They are not administered or graded by the school, but by officials from the Ministry of Magic's Wizarding Examinations Authority. The examinations do, however, take place at Hogwarts, and ministry officials make an annual trip to the school to administer these examinations. Hogwarts teachers heavily emphasize the importance of the tests, as they play an important role in determining each student's course of study in his or her remaining two years of school (many NEWT classes require high OWL grades as prerequisites) as well as the ...

The school's sports teams are called the Owls: this name comes from Temple's early days, when it was a night school. The Owls are primarily members of the Atlantic Ten Conference (A-10), with the notable exception of football. Since their football team participates in the NCAA's Division I-A, and the A-10 is a Division I-AA league, they must maintain separate league affiliation for that sport. The football program was a member of the Big East Conference until its expulsion after the 2004 season due to a variety of program shortcomings and ha ...
