yeah, the closest thing to student staff is when the upper-level kids make "room leaders" and they have to go around and check off everyone's cleaning jobs in the mornings, and "call back" the kids who left a speck of dust on the counter or an eyelash in the sink, or a little wrinkle in their bed. As a room leader, if you don't call back at least =someone=, then you get in trouble for not being a good room leader. The kid who gets called back gets an IR or "infraction" that they can half by going back and fixing it. They actually started the whole "halfing" thing while I was there. Three IR's equals one Class Two, which gives you twelve infraction points or IP's to serve off on investment, roughly three hours at two points per half-hour. Then you have to write this little contract about self- sufficiency and responsibility and hope it gets accepted, or else you have to go back and do the whole twelve hours again. I used to hear of kids purposely messing up someone's cleaning job, just so they would have a reason to call them back, so they themselves wouldn't lose their "status".
note: infraction points were shortened to IP's, but they also had a thing called "PI" which stood for physical-injection, when they dogpile a kid and shoot him up with hadol. I think that's kinda strange...
