The first alternative is a dangerous one, especially when such a vast majority of students do not accept the two-fold responsi bility of the honor system, as at Carolina.

Fraternities are also planning to give banquets Thursday-evening, at which fa culty members will be guests. Honor System (Continued from page one) passed the crisis. The chief need of the campus at the present is intelligent and frank discussion of the honor system. A great many students do not realize the full significance of the honor system. Many of us fail to see our obligation to report all vio lations to the council. "Before the honor system can woric as successiuiiy as we should like it, the vast majority of us must be willing not onljr to be honest with ourselves, but to report and to correct dishon esty in others. Probably modifi cations, if needed, can be sug gested and adopted only after having been presented by intelli gent group discussion. . "The student council requests the various discussion and social groups on the campus to con sider questions relating to the honor system. The council will co-operate by having its mem bers participate in any such dis cussion if desired. The council plans to appoint a commission to study the results of these va rious group discussions and make recommendations for im provements. "The most important need of the average student," Fairley further stated, "is thoroughly to understand the honor system and its operation and to realize his obligation under the system. The honor system has worked very successfully since its installation here in the University. 'The recent cheating ring ex posure would never have been uncovered except for the exis tence of the honor system. The administration recently stated that without the existence of the honor system and students who firmly believed in the honor sys tem, this ring could never have been uncovered, as the adminis tration and faculty would have been entirely powerless to un cover such a ring under the proc tor or monitor systems." women to face life, with its per- rvlp-vin cr nrnhlpms- and frustra- On the other hand, the second alternative is as dangerous, for L- PnUratrenuslv and death examples of extreme punishment will have a negative effect on a with itg mystery without fear. student boay which is not, at tne same time, coming rapmiy to ieJcountless men and women have alize that such extreme punishment is as important as complete I endured excruciating pain lone assumption oi responsiDinty Dy tne stuaents. hWs misunderstanding and In both .instances, the first step, then, is to build up on the ... seeimr him Jt 1 T I t i nrrt I x w campus tnis aeep unaerstanamg ot group nonor. me nonor sys- who is invisible. texu, necessarily imposes certain aemanas on eacn stuuent s inui- T1.0 v rpsftlrpp! nt cniritnnl viauai conception oi nonor, wnicn aemanas must airect to a cer- h transformed nroud tain extent the actions of that student operating under the sys- Pharisees into humble Christians CHRISTIAN SCIENCE Meets every Sunday at 11:00 a. m. m zuy uranam memorial.

These demands say, in addition to your living up to a code I pf honor yourself, you must also live up to the code of the sys tem, which requires you to report violations of honor. An objective analysis of the Carolina student body for the jpast decade necessarily results in the drawing of a pessimistic picture. Very, very few students have assumed both responsibili ties. In that light, the honor system has failed miserably. That is why the recent mass suspension procedure looked like such an ex treme, flagrant abuse of council duty. Yet if we'd simply lived up to the minimum requirements of the system under which we are supposed to have been operating, last week's activities would have been routine evidence of the successful workings of a solid system. There is a definite analogy to be drawn in the honor system in cidents and the athletic controversy. In both instances, certain ac tions (Graham's athletic proposals and the council's blanket poli cies) have been decried as extreme and idealistic. In both instances the vital actions have been nothing more than expressions of tra ditional policy, on what should have been regarded as routine lines to carry out accepted standards. In each instance, opposition to these actions has in reality been opposition to the system under which our student body and our athletics have operated for years, opposition to the very codes and standards which we are supposed to have been cherishing. In other words, we have awakened to find ourselves standing against the very principles of honor in student affairs and on the athletic field which have formed the base for our very collegiate existence. The persons who have pointed this out have been called idealists and lookers-into-the-future. Instead, they have been and are nothing more than re-affirmers of a faith, re-interpreters of the Carolina code of life. We must profit from the experience which these revelations have taught us. If we wait until some time in the future when such actions must stir us again to thought, then we will have gained nothing from the events of the past few months. and- sustained heroic souls through the generations are a vailable today. Faith still releas es a power which turns a thief into an honest man, a selfish man into a generous man, and a do mestic tyrant into a gracious lover. Deep sources of power are needed in contemporary life, not only for transfusion of strength into individuals, but also for the creation of a brotherhood.
