Haven't They Seen 'Carrie'?
-
A New Jersey high school cancelled the homecoming king and queen balloting over bullying -- the school got wind that students planned to elect a really wildly incompatible couple because they thought it would be "funny" to mock the "winners." This has always been a danger of any school election: Kids are, as has been long established, cruel. Actually, though, I never really got the whole homecoming king/queen thing, anyway. I'm not even sure my school had them. And even when it's done above board, it's a creepy popularity contest, so... yeah, get rid of 'em. (NJ.com)
