Asian Student Alliance This past week, we had a “childhood” themed meeting.

Around twenty of us sat around in the DMC and shared experiences of growing up.

We noted similarities and differences among the different Asian cultures. The best part was getting to hear from the “non-Asian” students and faculty members (Mr. Kelly and Mr. Briones) who joined us. Their input and perspective really added to our conversation, and ASA aims to rally more of those voices to our meetings.

We meet very other Tuesday after sitdown dinner in the DMC. -Ashley So ’13, President

“I pledge that, unless otherwise noted, this work is entirely my own.”

Is the Honor Pledge Worthy?

By HOLLY TAYLOR Contributing Writer I see the DC as a constructive entity. It doesn’t exist to punish or estrange students. In fact, it exists to achieve the exact opposite end: to draw the community closer together.

If this seems counterintuitive, let me explain: The DC is supposed to do something else.

There is an extra step. And that is to make sure the student knows not only how he broke the rule, but why breaking the rule is a bad thing to do in the first place.

The DC has the responsibility, I think, to steer the student in the right direction. It can’t simply punish shortcomings without providing a new way forward for the wayward student.

Regardless of how the DC is perceived, this is the end toward which I strive on the committee: that a student leaves a hearing with a heightened understanding of Deerfield’s rules and a newly strengthened respect for those rules.

The AHC is striving for the same thing: not only administering punishment, but

also attempting to provide an explanation to students why rules about plagiarism are important, and giving a kind of guidance as to how to be a better member of the Deerfield community.

So maybe the honor pledge is a step in the right direction, towards a conscious student body that accepts the necessity of rules even just to preserve the idea of Deerfield integrity; but it might not be.

It’s entirely up to the students, and how willing we are to accept this challenge to give ourselves over to what Deerfield demands of us.

But what is essential, the golden key, is that the students understand why. Why to follow the rules, why respecting DA is of the utmost importance, why an honor pledge could potentially help them develop respect for the rules.

Without the context, the pledge appears, as the DC does when disregarding its higher purpose to propagate DA’s integrity, to be just another twig snagged in students’ spokes as they roll through daily teenage life.

By CONNER ROMEYN Contributing Writer An honor pledge would be a drop in the bucket of the effort needed to decrease the newly elevated levels of plagiarism at Deerfield.

After many of the Academic Honor Committee cases last year, Academic Dean Peter Warsaw approached students being disciplined and asked if they thought that, given a moment before cheating where they were asked to reflect upon their personal values, they would have proceeded to break the school’s academic honor code. Students asked replied that they believed that such a moment of reflection might have altered their actions— they might never have cheated in the first place.

This seems to indicate the positive effects of an honor statement. In this sense, I support the addition of a mandatory pledge, to be completed with every major assignment. If the honor statement prevents a single student from cheating, then it has a clear benefit.

There aren’t, however, many

Why I Feel Guilty Living at Home

By CHARLOTTE POSEVER Contributing Writer Often, when peers find out I’m a day student, I get the response, “Really? You don’t look like a day student.” I think that sums up how the school integrates day students into the boarding community perfectly.

When people say that to me, I don’t usually say anything back (I mean, what do you say to that, “Thanks?”) but it most definitely gets me thinking about day student policies at Deerfield, and how day students are perceived and included on campus.

Obviously, there is a split between the day and boarding communities. I don’t just mean mathematically, either. Socially, it’s hard to integrate yourself into the boarding community, which is the majority of the school.

There are tons of weekend activities and events that happen on campus that I can’t go to on the weekends, and I often have the feeling of missing out on things with my friends.

Academically, it’s hard to find times to meet with teachers for extra help, especially when activities outside of Deerfield come into the picture, which

a lot of the time they do for day students. If study groups, clubs, or rehearsals meet on the weekend or after dinner, there’s a very big chance that I won’t go.

I’m sure I’m not alone in pointing out these difficulties that the day community faces. For a lot of day students, coming to school takes a substantial amount time out of the day, and on top of homework and other extracurricular activities that students participate in, it becomes a lot.

In terms of inclusivity in the dorms, I feel that Deerfield doesn’t put in any effort.

As a new sophomore I was lucky; I was associated with Harold Smith, which had a whole day student closet to keep things in. Since my sophomore year, however, not only have I noticed how much of a chasm there is between day and boarding students but also how difficult the school makes it to feel included in the community. It’s hard enough missing feeds and hall bonding experiences without having to stress about where I’m going to keep my things every day.

In each dorm, there is no designated day student area, as at many other private schools.

So I always find myself asking

my friends awkwardly, “Can I keep this in your room?” and with that question comes a sense of guilt. Why? Because of the community’s attitude.

I shouldn’t be made to feel guilty that I live at home, especially at a place where I take and add a lot to the community.

But every time I have to ask that question, or every time I walk by a common room and see that there isn’t an area where we can put our things, I feel bad that I’m day student. I feel unwelcome.

At other schools, there are things like day student rooms, even dresser-drawers for day students to use. I will admit that the DSL is a designated place to put our things; but, if Deerfield really is a community, and stresses integration of every student, why can’t the place where day students keep things be in the community, not isolated from everyone else?

I shouldn’t feel guilty about living at my house. But I feel that way every day, because Deerfield does very little to accommodate its day students in an inclusive way.

If the school has enough money to build a new Arts Center and a new boys’ dorm, I feel that they should have enough money to accommodate its day students, or else why have us here?

among us brave enough to tell Mr. Warsaw to his face that we would have cheated, no matter what we were required to sign.

The students’ words lose their value when one considers the context in which they were delivered.

In addition, many cases of cheating are conscious decisions on the part of a student: a student feels he has to cheat in order to make a due date, or pass a test. The student knows he is cheating—knows it is against the honor code—yet proceeds to cheat regardless of the consequences. In these cases, the honor pledge will serve as only another place to sign your name.

Though the honor pledge may not have a huge positive effect, there doesn’t seem to be any harm in instituting it. The only real negative effect it could have is if the Academy treats it as the miracle cure for academic dishonesty. We must be prepared to receive high numbers of AHC cases. While the honor pledge is a step in the right direction, it is still only a step. I’d like Deerfield to continue devising ways to inspire honesty.

Gay Straight Alliance GSA this year just celebrated a successful National Coming Out Day, on October 3. This year, we’re going to talk about the “alphabet soup” of letters (LGBTQQAAP) and their meanings.

In April, our Diversity Month, we will be planning some weekend events, most notably the Day of Silence, which will be followed by a “Breaking the Silence” rainbow dance.

We meet every odd Wednesday, at 6:15 in the Health Issues classroom.

-Julie Harris ’13, President

Jewish Student Alliance The JSA this year would like to become more present on campus.

Our official alliance month is November, so get excited for a bar-mitzvah themed dance sometime before Thanksgiving.

We also have our usual events planned such as Latke Making and a Passover Seder.

We have spoken briefly about the possibility of getting together with our counterpart at other schools for some events as well.

Getting to know Jewish students from in prep school community will be great, and events like interscholastic Shabbat dinners will foster a sense of unity.

We meet every Sunday after sitdown dinner in the DMC. -Hannah Insuik ’13, President

Latin American Student Alliance We plan to have a Zumba night and a Salsa (the food) night soon. In upcoming meetings , we will discuss how Hispanic people are perceived and the stereotypes associated with the culture, as well as other issues that impact the Latino community.

We meet every other Thursday after sitdown dinner in the DMC. -Chris Ortega ’13, President

The Multicultural/ Multiracial Alliance The Multicultural Alliance is a student-run organization that provides a safe, comfortable and fun environment in which students of all backgrounds can share cross-cultural experiences.

We will be rolling sushi in Ephraim Williams for our first meeting on October 10.

We will meet every other Wednesday. and times and meeting places will be announced.

-Mariana Candela ’13, President If any DDA group would like to share plans for the upcoming months, please contact shirshland@deerfield.edu
