Letters of Some Importance

Dear Albus Percival Wulfric Brian Dumbledore,

On matters of the tournament, I must inform you of one possible change. I am sure you know of the Liberty Institute for Magical Education. If you do not, they are the Hogwarts of the North American Colonies. They have recently petitioned to be included in the Triwizard Tournament on the grounds that their school has gained international acclaim since the last tournament. They are appealing their exclusion based on Clause C, Paragraph Two.

Regrettably, I cannot deny their inclusion on those grounds, as Clause B, Paragraph Two clearly states that any strictly magical school with international acclaim can be added at a later date via petition from when the next tournament is announced to one month before the drawing of the names. You cannot deny Liberty's international acclaim, as students from around the world flock for its summer courses (despite the raised costs for foreigners) and its wins of several international wizarding events, including a sweep of all under-18 dueling categories.

I know it breaks tradition, but we must allow them to enter. At least we can show our superiority through this opportunity.

Sincerely,

Bartemius Crouch, Senior,

Head,

Department of International Magical Cooperation,

Ministry of Magic, Britain
