Student Opinion

Besides the regular duties which
concern the Honor Committee, this
year's Committee has undertaken
the task of discovering a reliable
method by which student opinion
can be measured. As Mr. Clement
has stated, "One very real problem
that exists here is that 'consensus of
honor.' For any honor system to
serve as an effective code of
conduct it must of course have
widespread student support."

Terry Cox, the former President
of the Architecture School,
reasoned that if any provision of
the system lacks credibility with
the present student generation, the
whole Honor System could be
thrown into jeopardy.
