' HAYWOOD WEEKS WRITES ON STUDENT HONOR SYSTEM (continued from page one) of 'moral philosophy, and one of' its principles seems to be that “where there is no trust, deceipt is no crime.” “Cribbing is considered a venial of fense ' when there are professosrs around for the express purpose of espionage. There can be- no real virtue where there is no opportunity for vice. Re move freedom of choice between good and evil, and character ceases to de velop. No morality was ever created by legislative ordinance, nor prese by police supervision. But for the honor system to 1 complete success the students must give their unqualified'adherence to it; and there must t>e hearty cooperation between students and faculty. Re porting by the students constitutes, of course, the crux of the situation; and they must ■ be, willing to accept that obligation unequivocally that the system may achieve the greatest pos sible success. Many students are re luctant to accept the responsibility to report their fellow-students for breaches of honor. They feel that’to do so w.ould be “tattling”, which is against theij; code of ethics. But such reports should not be confused with what is known as “squealing”. The latter should be used to designate the reporting of a strictly personal, man- to-man affair. A student’s conduct such as cheating, which threatens to undermine the very foundaiton of student life, is not a personal affair and should not be treated as such. To better illustrate this point, take an example m civil life. Society would expect a person receiving some mere personal affront or injury to manifest his resentment in a private way but would expect that same person to re port a burglar, for his actions, in themselves, are a menace to the safe ty and continuance of society. Every group of persons has its weaker members. If, as under a proc tor system, no responsibility rests upon the individual members, the ten dency is to follow the line of least resistance and do what everyone else does. The result is that the weaker members take the lead and the strong ones follow, because they have no res ponsibility to hold back. You get the effect of a stone rolling down hill, gathering momentum as it goes. But if you have a plan, as the honor sys tem, where responsibility is placed on the individual, every time a person decides to be different from the weak er members of the society and reports a violation gf its laws, the effect is to check the downward trend; and a sufficient number of such persons can soon reverse the trend and make the stone roll up hill. In this way the stronger characters help boost up the weaker ones. VThe honor system should not go be yond and extend its limits to include offenses of conduct that should Be handled by a tribunal set up for the express purpose of dealilig with stu dent misconduct. Some extremists lege by work suited to their incli- feel that drinking and similar be havior should be aviolation of the honor' system and worthy of punish ment of expulsion in disgrace and dis honor. But to include such viola tions of conduct would bring the sys tem to a point of disrespect and im practicability and would soon drive it into oblivion. To use a familiar simile: the honor system, like rubber, when stretched too much, loses its quality, of elasticity. In conclusion, I quote the words of Professor Edward S. Joynes of the University of South Carolina: “The only true system for the education of a gentleman by gentlemen is the honor system—that is, the system of mutual, respect and confidence.” From The National Student Mirror Next Tuesday is the day to vote on the repeal of the 18th Amendment. Pathe News has been full of liquor scenes and preparations for the sale of the stuff! How will the vote car ry? Isn’t it fun to get dressed for a date Saturday night, and then get stood up? HALLOWE’EN BANQUET IS HELD AT ACADEMY Saturday night in the social room at the academy, the juniors enter tained at a delightful Hallowe’en ban quet. The room was brightly ar ranged with autumn leaves and hallo- we’en decorations. The guests were ushered to their places by Jean Grey Scott trans formed into a “spooky old witch.” A delicious dinner was served. . During the evening, dancing, and games and contests pertaining to Hallowe’en, were enjoyed which con sisted of “Grab Bag,” “Fortune Tell ing,” “House of Horrors,” “Bobbing for Apples,’ and pinning circles on a pumpkin.” The two best artists-were determined when Anne Perkins won first place and Helen Litz came a close second in a cofitest, to tear the shape of a cat out of T)aner. Frances ){ecd was proven the best at "hitting the mark in pinning a circle on a pumpkin. The evcrai]^ was lull of frolics, fun. and spooks.
