I find myself facing a dilemma regarding the ongoing nominations for Homecoming.

Is it ethical for an instructor to participate in the selections in a popularity contest like this? Does it show favoritism, can it complicate working relationships with cadets through bias? Obviously the issue would be bigger if I was campaigning. I'd have leverage to bribe with if I had any inclination toward popularity contests and a lack of morals to restrain me from that behavior, but I think there's still potential for trouble if I'm too interested in voting for a student.

I'm assuming the ethics issue, if there was one, wouldn't apply to the King and Queen nominations. With those categories, I simply have to face the fact that my vote remains undecided and begin my research. I wouldn't want to be caught shying away from school spirit entirely.

I'll keep my eyes open then.

The only other guy I thought of was Tom and he's not eligible right now. I had to vote for someone, besides you'd probably be a good king.

No, I don't think I would have been. Rage seems to be a highly valued trait among homecoming royalty. Maybe it's all the emotion from our military training.

Do you think you're up to the task of bringing balance?
