My sophomore year of high school, the Student Council President (a senior) took a couple of laps around the track ... bareassnaked. Back then, we called it “streaking”. Funny thing ... he ceased to be Student Council President the next day. IIRC, he was allowed to graduate, but not allowed to “march”.
