Boundaries
Another twenty-four percent felt that there
should be no geographical boundaries to the
Honor System, while five percent had other
suggestions.
The analysis also stated that "half of the
student respondents felt the Honor System had
become less effective since they first entered
the University, but those same students who
felt it less effective indicated no real consensus
on reasons why."
Fifty-one percent felt it had become less
effective; three percent, more effective; thirty
percent, no change; and sixteen percent, no
opinion.
In a secondary question asked of those who
thought it had become less effective, most
respondents wrote their own ideas which
according to the preliminary report will be
analyzed later.
The report found that "a definite
majority of the students indicated they believe
that a growth in the University will weaken the
effectiveness of the Honor System."
One percent felt that it would become more
effective; fifty-nine percent, less effective;
thirty-one percent, the effectiveness should not
change as the University grows; four percent,
no opinion; and five percent had other ideas.
"According to poll respondents, if the
Honor System were to be revised, a significant
number (44%) indicated that they preferred to
change the penalty."
