, “With a clear understanding of all that
the Honor Code implies, I pledge that I
will uphold the highest standard of personal
integrity in every phase of life at St. Mary’s,
and I recognize and accept my responsibility
for helping others to live up to that standard.”
The above oath is one which every stu
dent takes upon entering St. Mary’s. It sym
bolizes her desire to become a part of the
school in harmony with its values and ob
jectives. However, too often one pledges these
words unaware of their real meaning and
significance. As a result, the Honor Code is
often unheeded or misused.
When a girl takes an illegal overnight,
or cuts Chapel, or otherwise breaks a rule,
she is negligent in living up to the Honor
Code. Perhaps she is unaware that her ac
tions violate the code, or perhaps the code
means nothing to her because she does not

see it reinforced in the general attitudes of
the students. Concurringly, when a girl re
ports another girl for violation of the Honor
Code for reasons of jealousy or revenge, w-ith-
out first discussing the action with her, she
also is misusing the code and showing dis
respect for its true meaning. *It was not en
acted to be used as a weapon against another
individual or to establish a “police state” on
campus.
The purpose of the Honor Code is to
help individuals live together harmoniously,
and to develop a feeling of trust on campus
and an understanding and realization of the
ideals of St. Mary s. Perhaps the significance
of both the Honor Code and the ideals of St.
Mary s should be reevaluated as to each in
dividual s understanding and acceptance of
them and as to their relevancy not only on
campus, but in every phase of life. S. A. H.

Certain it is that there is no kind of
affection so purely angelic as that of a father
to a daughter. He beholds her both with and
without regard to her sex. In love to his wife
there is desire; to his son there is ambition;
but to his daughter there is something which
there are no words to express.
