Seems like a similar concept. | |

Now Dolores Umbridge may not have been over the moon about this (which may, under those circumstances, for all we know, have troubled Dumbledore a bit); but there's nothing to suggest Dumbledore minded students going in with appropriate supervision, as you say. | |
