'Code' Favored
In National Poll
Student approval of the honor
code idea was indicated in a recent
poll of a dross-section of the na
tion's students conducted by the
Associated Collegiate Press.
Students were asked, “In gen
eral, do you approve or disapprove
of the honor system for your
school?” The honor system w'as un
derstood to include provisions that
students should be on their honor
not to cheat on tests and examina
tions and that they would not be
watched by instructors.
Of the students questioned, 62
per cent stated that they favored
the system for their schools. Thir
ty-three per cent disapproved, 3
per cent offered no opinion and 2
per cent gave other replies.
'Jhe students also were asked if
they had ever seen a student copy
from another student’s paper or
break an examination rule in some
other manner. An even 75 per cent
answered in the affirmative, 22 per
cent said, “No,” and 3 per cent

cent) approved the proposed Uni
versity honor code.
