A Case W h e r e It W o r k e d
Dear Editor,
Several students have asked mo if
I woukl report my best friend, This
was and is my answer.
Yes, I should report my best friend
if I saw her cheating under the honor
system. I would consider that I was
being kind to her in so doing; for,
if she cheated while in college without being punished for it, she would
cheat later on in life, and the world
would punish her much more severely
than our honor court could. Then
too, suffering refines character arm
purifies the soul. Many of our famous men would not have been famous had they not suffered while
they were young. Sir Isaac Newton,
himself, said that he never cared for
school and studying until the school
bully beat him. Then ho studied diligently to show that bully that he
could beat him at Ins studies. Newton did beat the bully in that way
and ho acquired the habit of studying which in later years led to his
making one of the most wonderful
discoveries ever made in the world of
science. Yes, I would report my best
friend if I saw her cheating. Then
I would be the first one to tell her
that she had, been reported by mo and
why I reported her. I would toll her
that I believed that she was capable
of better things. Evon if she were
expelled from college, I would keep
my faith in her and continue to he
her friend.
This is not all theory. I have applied my theory to a case in real life,
outside of this college and it worked.
A few years ago I reported a girl
friend for cheating. It was a milder
form of cheating than that which has
frequently occurred in State College.
I went to her and told her what f
had done and why. I expected that
she would hate me forever after, but
to my surprise' she listened to mo and
then said: "You did right in reporting me and I am going to take m.v
punishment cheerfully." I told her
that she was capable of better things.
In the talk that followed and the
days and weeks, too, while she was
suffering her punishment and seeking
to reestablish herself in life and to
justify my faith in her, we became
better friends than we had ever been
before I reported her.
'2!
Why Not A Trial?
When the honor system is mentioned here at State College, most
of the students view it as an entirely
new plan of action. The honor system has been in American Colleges
since L842 in some form. In one of
the Southern colleges it was the signing of a pledge similar to that read
in chapel last week.
We too, have had the honor system
here at college for the last two years,
perhaps longer. When we go into
the cafeteria to buy our lunch, we
are on our honor to go to the desk
and pay for it. Also, both the men's
and women's basketball training
teams are on their honor to obey
training rules, because there is no
guardian standing over them all the
time to see that they do it. In high
school all of us were very familiar
with the pledge, "I do so declare."
The honor system as proposed in
chapel, a week ago, I do not think
would go here at College just yet.

We have to grow up to that sort of
an honor system. Most of the students are willing to sign a pledge to
be honest themselves, but object to
the clause where they agree to report a fellow student whom they see
cribbing in a written test or examination. But, if a student cheats and
then boasts about it, he is lowering
the value not only of his own diploma and degree, but of yours also.
Everyone in this college helps either
to make or mar the reputation of our
Alma. Mater. Why not give the honor system a trial here at State for
the rest of the year? Not much
would bo lost and how much would
be gained if it proved successful. If
everyone, personally, lived up to hisj that, isn't that all the more reason

question which stirred Student Assembly Friday, October 23. After
the motion of the previous week had
been rescinded, one of the liveliest

was passed to carry the question over
to the next Student Assembly, at
which time Myskania should present
a definite plan.
