- — Professor McGonagall talking to the First years.
A common room is a shared lounge area in Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. There is one for each house. The common rooms feature fireplaces and sitting areas and are decorated in house colours. They are often used to do homework and to socialize with housemates. The boys' and girls' dormitories are also attached to the common rooms, with spells in place to prevent male students from entering the girls' dorms.
To enter a common room, a student requires a password, which prevents students from another house from entering. The Ravenclaw common room requires the answer to a riddle in order to enter.
