(1 / 5) Flag as inappropriate - We believe your policy that if a student is an early graduate he or she can not be saluatorian or valedictorian. That is crazy. IF an student had the sense to take every opportunity to graduate early and be 1 or 2 top of her class. Why can't she have that right as well?
