There are a number of problems that could result
from the awarding of an Academic Varsity Letter, many of which stem from my
personal experience with the awarding of the letters.
1. There must be explicit guidelines otherwise,
students and or parents who think that they or their child deserved a letter
due to the sole fact that they are counted as a member.
2. Tension between two or more members could result
if one was awarded a letter and the other(s) were not, or visa versa. These
tensions could result in lack of membership, loss of friendships, and possible
cult like responses.
Some minor problems that could result include
1. Bickering between the student body over who was
awarded a letter, regardless of the club they are in.
2. Awarding of letters could result in cliques of
those who received or will receive a letter.
