BELLES OF ST. MARY’S M I )3: i; ' 1; I'I .• I V: :!* i 11' i\ :![: ■ * il* 'i! h: l!ir I'l- iM II Does honor mean anything to you? “The name, that idle name of wind, that empty sound called honor.” Samuel Daniel, “A Pastoral” Honor is a word — letters which, grouped and uttered together, make a short-lived sound. A word may be whispered or it may be shout ed but still the sound floats away, echoing, fading, dying. However, this name, honor, is a word, made in the mind of a man; therefore, the word must describe or mean something. What does the word honor mean? This is an ageless question, one that has never been answered definitely; for the word honor denotes an abstract idea. Everyone, however, has his own conception of honor which, although it eludes exact definition, is nevertheless a very real personal value, made manifest by attitudes and proclaimed by conduct. Furthermore, groups of people both in large segments, such as a nation, or in small ones, such as a school, have codes of honor to which its mem bers subscribe — must subscribe in order to maintain the integrity of the group and to j^rotect all those within it. Thus for every maturing person it becomes necessary to define honor as clearly as he can, and to make his own practices consistent with his ideals. At St. Mary’s, where certain standards of idealism and conduct have been adopted as a com mon denominator of community living, the matter of honor remains pri marily an individual one. This is true because any struggle •— if it comes to the point of struggle — to maintain the honor of ourselves or of our school will be decided not in public debate or organized demonstration but quietly within our own consciences. Our honor system can mean nothing unless each student has given it meaning by defining and evaluating his own honor. Even though one has defined his concept of honor, which must, inevitably, be based on honesty, honor is nothing to that person until he practices that honesty and the other ideals included in his definition of honor — on the inside and the outside. “Honor is purchas’d by the deeds we do; — honor is not won, until some honorable deed be done.” Marlowe, “Hero and Leander” HONOR CODE ith a clear understanding of all that the Honor Code implies^ I pledge that I will up hold the highest standard of personal integrity in every phase of life at St. Mary s., and I rec ognize and accept my responsibility for helping others to live up to that standard.
