I feel that the secrecy which
surrounds individual decisions of
the Honor Committee must remain
in order to protect the rights of the
students involved. However, in
aspects of the Honor Committee
operation other than that of
judging cases, student participation
should be encouraged. Hopefully
through open meetings of the
Committee where interested
students can question the policy
and procedure of the Honor
System, through referendums,
surveys and polls where the student
body as a whole can express its
opinions on these questions, and
through increased availability of
literature dealing with the Honor
System, students would better
understand the system and the
Honor Committee could better
reflect the opinions of the student
body.
