<p>I've been thinking about height in the CC community. In humans, height is traditionally a dominant trait, and leaders tend to be (often significantly) above average height. Since the majority of CC high schoolers are variants of the "overachiever" stereotype and excel in extracurriculars, I figure that these "future leaders" should have a higher height average than normal - so I'm looking for evidence to support or disprove my theory. If you're a high school student (and have gone through most of your expected growth), please post your height and gender.</p>
