Battalion Editorials Page 2 THE BATTALION THURSDAY, MARCH *10, 1955 A Good Place To Start The Intercouncil committee has come up with the best plan yet for an honor code. Their proposal is not a perfect one, because no honor code can be perfect as long as it deals with people, but it eliminates a lot of the bad points of the many other codes that have been proposed. If their plan goes into effect, students will run it through a student Honor Council; there will be no “tale-telling” to professors, a feature of the other plans found objection able. L, -*■ Also, the system is to be in force for the entire student body, whether they “take the pledge” or not, going on the assumption that everyone should be honorable. Those who oppose an honor code, saying it won’t work here, may have a point. Cer tainly it will take a long time to develop a working honor system at A&M, a school whose students have condoned cheating for too long. But we’ll never know unless we try, and the Intercouncil’s plan is a good place to start.
