I student of mine is writing an undergraduate thesis on theorems in 
mathematics which are equivalent to the axiom of choice, which got me 
thinking: are there (relatively well-known) statements in mathematics, or 
specifically set theory, which are _stronger_ than the axiom of choice?
Some form of choice for classes perhaps? What use does it have? There are of 
course many weak forms of choice.
