In 1978, mass student protests embroiled the capital, and students nominated Sadikin as an alternative president.

The students also nominate a Winter and Summer sport to compete in weekly with the APS (Associated Private Schools).

In 1924, for instance, in a sentimental move, students nominated a little-known Wall Street lawyer, John W. Davis.

(The three highest-scoring students at the 60 highest-scoring schools can nominate a teacher.)

The winning teachers and the students who nominated them appeared in a special-edition Marvel comic book that featured teachers as Super Heroes.

Beyond that, students can nominate especially active and innovative teachers for several awards.

There is no remedial teaching for the students nominated to repeat during their repeated year.

The students then nominated Pratt for the U.S. presidency, and passed the hat to buy him a new pair of shoes and a meal.

The students nominate Shun, Umi, and Shirō to visit Tokyo and meet with Tokumaru, a businessman and the school board's chairman.

As a result of the protest, local officials delayed the election so students could nominate their own candidates.
