An honor system is a way of life

hie from (he bookstore to the
library and from exams to discipline.
By definition such n system
ould be one thereby students are
treated as adults and are given the
rpportunity for
and
with
respect to the college community.
first in presenting an honor
asstem for I K is the establishment of a need. This ran best be
done by asking a few questions:
Is there cheating here? Is there a
lark of school spirit?
Is there evidence of petty thievery? Should college students learn
to lliinfc, art. and Judge maturely?
Is there a heed for better opportunity for studrnts to learn a
rnse of right and wrong, consideration for others, and develop- ment of leaders?
If the answers to these quest ions
Is yes' the next problem Is how to
an
honor
achieve
'
fystcm. The education' of t lie students and laculty to the need and
requirements of such traditions
rmi' t be the basic step.
If the students choose to
an honor Mstem at an
election, a 'Traditions Committee'
could be established through the
Mudent government association to
draw up the specitic plans for the
system. This committee could be
- composed of representatives of
campus organizations, such r.s the
honiiiaries. SOA. Suky, iVC,
religious groups, the
iacultv and so on.

Could involve class officers, freshman beanies, senior week, inter-clas- s
tug-o- f
wars, (these measures
might create a feeling of "brlong- Jng' to UK and present obvious
kigns of loyalty to the group pride).

Signing of a pledge not to

given during the semester with
less emphasis on mid-terand
final exams.
At Antioch College, after such a
rystem had been established, exams
could be taken wherever the student desired, smoking was allowed
in most places, and women difl not
have special hours or have to sign
In and out.
There have been many objections to this proposal, but in reply
to most of them the following
points could be made.
Students will .not turn in friends
seen cheating: this is not one of
the necessary parts and- does- - not
need to be included In a pledge
not to cheat.
Old traditions are outdated:
Tradition Is the backbone
and pride in a university
and in a state.

There should be enough Intelligent, capable students enrolled at
I K to execute an honor system
and who should not
have to suffer for the few, but who
should be able to help and direct
those few who could not follow the
system.
An Honor system expresses the
cle.sireof the community to live as
normally and naturally as possible
by creating a democratic atms- phere ot freedom coupled with
responsibility.
