Vote for Your Friends
Since I'm enrolled in an undergraduate course, I get to vote in the Student Assembly election.
This amuses me. I never voted in the Student Assembly when I was an actual undergraduate many years ago. Now I have a second chance to participate in a meaningless popularity contest.
The obvious option was to ignore the whole thing and not vote. There was also the possibility of voting for students who've taken my class AND done well. And if the ballot were not so damn complicated, I could outsource my voting to the Calculus Circus by having them use their clickers to vote for who I should vote for.
