Thursday night we gave a forecast of impending Harry Potter madness. Today we follow up with a retrospective of all the wonderful Potter pride that we witnessed. Here are some highlights:
- Lots of Columbia/Barnard people were spotted at the 3:30 AM IMAX show at Lincoln Square.
- One gay student on campus wore a t-shirt to the midnight showing that said “Dumbledore Pride!” in rainbow letters.
- A Dobby donning brown paper ears, a tag that said “SPEW!” and a sock pinned to a cut-up pillowcase was seen roaming about campus.
- Harry Potter got a special shout-out at the Bad Poetry contest.
A number of students were spotted out in group costumes:
And if you still have doubts about how much Columbia LOVES Harry Potter, the following information should be of great comfort: a commenter tips that the line to the midnight show at 84th Street pictured below broke out in a rousing rendition of “Roar, Lion, Roar.”

@ryan i fucking love gus hecht
@Duh You can’t just GO to Pigfarts, it’s ON MARS. You need a ROCKET SHIP. Do YOU have a rocket ship?
@Anonymous I bet you do. You know, not all of us inherited enough money to buy out NASA when our parents died. Look at this. Rocketship Potter. Starkid Potter. Mooonshoes Potter. TRAVERSING THE GALAXY FOR INTERGALATIC TRAVELS TO PIGFARTS.
@Roar, Lion, Roar? RUMBLEROAR!
@Wait, wait, wait …are you trying to tell us that Columbia and Pigfarts are the same school?
@um I feel bad for the harry potter guy, because he is doomed to star in the harry potter series for life.
@... Except for the fact that this is the penultimate movie.
@and except for the fact that now, if he chooses, Daniel Radcliffe would never have to work another day in his life. Typecasting may be annoying, but I think a cool $60 million is probably worth it.

@Anonymous Daniel Radcliffe is amazing! Equus was great, not to mention the scene in Deathly Hallows where he had to play all his friends being him after taking Polyjuice Potion… hilarious!
@screw this you guys are in college grow up…
@Anonymous I feel like this sort of is growing up. It’s the last film, the last part of this series that pretty much defined a lot of our childhood and adolescence. I feel like Harry Potter was incredibly pertinent to our age group, so let us celebrate such a formative phenomenon and let Harry and company go out in bang.
