<p>Would it be dumb to give up that position just to start my own club? I do like being in student council a lot, but I still feel I would get more out of it academically. ( I can't do both because I am also on a sports team). Any thoughts/opinions would be much appreciated. Thanks!</p>
<p>student council is stupid</p>
<p>student council sounds better on the app, but I’d say start your own club</p>
<p>Student council is such a bureaucracy, and it would not be dumb to drop out particularly if you are passionate about whatever club you are starting.
Full disclaimer: I lost the election at my school for class president this year by a very small margin.</p>
<p>Would you respond to my thread?
