I've always thought that there should only be one valedictorian. In cases where multiple students have the same (highest) GPA, they should have to debate a contemporary issue (Lincoln-Douglas style) in front of the student body. I'm all for academic excellence, but not rote memorization. If you deserve that GPA, then you ought to be able to defend any position honorably and intelligently.
