Serves As Model
As the result of the success of
the Honor System at the University
for 128 years, it has served as a
model for many other institutions
around the country who have wished
to fashion similar system. Mr.
Morris noted that he has received
many requests for information on
the System from all kinds of sources
who have noted the wide notoriety
of the System office last
March.
In an article on cheating in
1966. TIME magazine referred to
"the most famous" Honor System
as an example of a exception to the
cheating trends of the times. It
quoted then Dean of the Law
School and now member of the
World Court Judge Hardy Dillard as
saying that a code of honor "demands
not that an individual be
good, but that he be unambiguously
strong-a quality generally
known as character. The man who
lies, cheats, or steals is fundamentally
weak."
