selective syndrome

Selective schools are specific schools across Australia that accept 6th graders for high school when they pass the selective school test. During their time here, they may suffer from 'selective syndrome' (which can occur anytime and anywhere) where they loose their intellectuallity and succumb to the state of normallity (AKA the mainstream classes' state).
"Hey Janice, what happened to poor Carol over there. She looks a bit unstable"
"Oh don't worry about her, she's got selective syndrome. It'll wear off sooner or later"
"Well I hope it does, since we have a maths test next period"

Selective Communism

The act of propagating an agenda within a public facility such as a school, of a specific spiritual/religious book, or other aspects of it such as a bible, while staff would ignore sonething like The Koran, or even The Book Of The Law, and The Satanic Bible. This could also go for a Parochial school within Christendom, that would ban specifically forbid one having a Koran, maybe even more so than a Gnostic Book or bible.
Biology Instructor: Hey, Alison, I will need to confiscate your Bible. Alison: What.. why, I have all my work done, and another student has a mini Koran? Biology Instructor: It's against the Code of Conduct now, and it's a war waging book. Alison: Now that is Selective Communism!
