Student Council Reports Honor Code Case Decisions (Editor's Note This report to the students of the student council deci sions of honor violations follows the new policy of Bert Bennett, student body president, in publishing decision and circumstances of honor cases.) Case No. I: Facts A sophomore was reported by the policemen as having stolen several articles of goods from automobiles which included an automobile tire, a tank of gasoline, a tennis court net, a shot gun, and two spot lights. The boy pleaded that he was under the influence of alcohol and did not remember exactly what happened. The student, a few hours later, showed the policemen exactly where everything came from. The tire was hidden on the Raleigh road about 20 feet from the street behind a tree. Several officers and a student said that the boy was sober. Decision and opinion That he be suspended from the University in definitely. The Council was unanimous in the opinion that he had lied, stolen and had violated the Campus Code. Since college is more or less a kindergarten for life, we can only hope that this boy will reorientate himself to a higher standard of the basic rights. Case No. 2: Facts: A sophomore was suspected of stealing books from a retail book store. He had been under suspicion for several weeks by the owners. On being questioned, the student admitted that he had taken seven books and had sold two. Decision and opinion He be suspended for violating the honor system. We have no other alternative than to suspend a person for stealing. In our society we must endeavor to rebuild the fundamental wrongs of vio lators (sic); consequently allowing him to remain out of school for a while will enable him to see his mistake.
