Debating whether or not to put it on.
Here’s how I see it

Pros:
adds a new dimension to my application: profile does not point to the popular type (do not play a sport, good grades)
shows respect and approval of peers + from a large public school
Asian Americans are apparently rated lower on personality scores so I think this is good at dispelling that
I also state that I would like to run for public office some day so peer approval might be important.

Cons:
seems stupid
do college admissions actually care about something so trivial? It seems like a dumb HS popularity award
may indicate that I take this too seriously + indicates immaturity?

The way I personally saw winning HC court was that my peers respected me and I have high approval throughout the student body.
