text: As for the students who choose not to take time away from their social lives to make a better community should not be punished or held on a lower pedestal .They should be treated the same and they should be able to realize on their own the opportunities they're missing out on .If there is a certain in -school activity that they will miss out on then that is a way that they can be influenced to participate .But there are some students who can't or aren't able to help the community .No-one should really have to explain themselves because the fact of the matter is if they choose to live in this type of community and live in this type of environment then they have to deal with the consequences.      The election should be by popular vote of the citizens not by government hired official with some group name to make them sound important.
