At Saint Joseph School we have taken advantage of the expanded ranks and permissions that debuted with Issue 6 "Along Came A Spider." Though all ranks are bound by our Code of Conduct, each rank carries a significance that is explained below.
All students begin their tenure at St. Joe's as a Freshman. For the first 30 days a student is enrolled, this rank is considered probationary (see our forum guide So I'm a Probationary Member... for information on the probationary period). Though freshmen are typically the lowest level students, a student of any level will begin at the rank of Freshman. Freshmen have no responsibilities per se, and they have no powers to recruit, promote, demote, kick or anything else. However, with only a minimum of effort, a Freshman may rise in rank to become...

Enrollment in the supergroup for no less than 30 days.

Saint Joseph School uniform, either at creation or by visiting Icon.

Earn 15,000 prestige points for Saint Joseph School in combat.

Sophomores are only nominally different from Freshmen. They cannot add, drop, promote or demote other students. However, Sophomores are expected to help out Freshmen and start participating in storylines both in-game and on the forum. Sophomores may also access the storage items in the supergroup base. Sophomores who continue to distinguish themselves may be invited to move up and become…

Upperclassmen can enroll new students, change the MoTD, and have access to a special forum for their use. Upperclassmen are expected to take an active role in storyline roleplaying, and to begin their own storylines when appropriate. Most students will not rise above this rank, but three times a year, the upperclassmen are offered the opportunity to become...
Every four months, Saint Joseph School elects a Student Council to assist with running the supergroup. The Student Council is the model for the SG, representing the epitome of both high roleplaying standards and in-game play. Any Upperclassman is eligible to run for Student Council, as long as they meet the following criteria:
Be in good standing.
Be able to enter the base.
Be able to consistently maintain a higher level of activity in game and on the forums than is required for other ranks.
Feel comfortable with authority and the responsibility authority brings.
Be able and willing to devote at least 2-5 hours each week to Student Council duties.

Code of Conduct Addendum as it applies to the Student Council.
Student Council have all the powers of the upperclassmen, and may also promote, demote, and kick members.

But even greater still is the mysterious rank known as...
