Griffin and Zable/Campus
I was overseas the last couple of weeks and came across a couple of decorative Griffins. Thought I'd share and made me wonder...would the campus embrace a few of these...possibly at the new Zable? Any artsy alums willing to donate their time to create them for permanent display?

I like it. It would also add more character to our quiddich fields.

Even better would be a armored statue of Laycock with a flaming sword riding a rearing angry griffin. Bonus could be Tiger, bulldog, & chicken carcasses under the Griffins talons. Too much?
