Stronger Orientation
This might create a temptation
to break the honor code. The
answer, Mr. Clement felt, must be
"in an increased orientation program."
As to how the system would
apply to girls, he said, "it would
have to be presented in a different
manner, but I foresee no real
difficulties outside of administration
details."
When asked about the impact of
the University's anticipated growth
on the Honor System, Mr. Clement
replied "an increased student body
does present problems, particularly
in the diversity of the backgrounds
of the students."
In answer to this problem, Mr.
Clement again felt the responsibility
lay "in a stronger effort to reach
these people. The orientation program
should be strengthened." He
added, "the Honor System is the
Honor System regardless of the
backgrounds of the people under
it."
Mr. Clement felt that the orientation
program was also the answer
to the problem of applying the
Honor System to any under-privileged
students admitted to the
University, who might have different
backgrounds from the average
student.
Mr. Clement ended his talks by
again emphasising "student support
is essential to the system. As long
as peer disapproval and interest is
maintained our system will remain
intact."
Mr. Clement began his campaign
for President of the College and
Chairman of the Honor Committee
with talks given in the first-year
dormitories.
