Hello, everyone. I've been considering adding an honors board to Sonora - a place where past students can be remembered for their achievements. I've made a prototype for improvement here. Let me know what you think!

Even as an author who has yet had a student to graduate, I think this is a great idea and a cool honor for the students :) I think you should go through with it! :D

Well, I like the idea. I am, however, slightly likely to be biased. I've got four graduates and a seventh year.

On the suggestion front – and this is very much take it or leave it as you will – it might be good if some kind of note was made as to what “year” each group of alumni graduated; for instance, I’m thinking the current seventh years are the class of 12 SA, though I can’t swear to that. The midterm year-flip always throws me off. If you’re aware of what year it was last IC-June, though, it’s easier to calculate the current IC date and figure out how many years have passed since Event A, if it’s the right year for Event B, how many years until Event C…That sort of thing. All of this, however, is from the perspective of someone with a handful of long-range plots, poor math skills, and a slightly unhealthy love of drawing up big complicated family trees and elaborate timelines, so take it with as many grains of salt as are deemed necessary.
