THE HONOR SYSTEM. All of us arc thinking consl intly of our college and the great strides forward thai il has made in the last few years.

We sec our n. v buildings, our broadened curriculum, our Increased faculty, cur growi ig student body, and think with pride that \vc may well be proud of our college. And we should be BO. However, when we examine our conception of an honor system, we do not speak s loudly in its prai; . All of us read with admiration accounts of the Btrides other institutions are making.

One of the first idi I es to mind in thinking of the University of Virginia Is its In nor i m. Washington and Lee has a store on the campus thai i run by the honor system.
