A WORD OF COMMENDATION
The COLLEGIAN wishes to commend the student body for its ap
proval of one of the amendments to the Honor System, proposed
recently by the Honor Committee. This amendment reads: "Upon
the first conviction of dishonesty, it shall be the duty of the Honor
Committee to determine and transmit to the executive of thecollege
the specific punishment to be meted out to the offender, this punish
ment not to exceed one year of suspension from college."
It will readily be seen that this amendment greatly strengthens the
Honor System, in that it places more power and greater leeway
in the hands of the Honor Committee. Heretofore, if a man were
brought up for trial, no matter whether the offense were great or
small, the Honor Committee had but one of two alternatives: either
to adjudge the man guilty and suspend him from college, or to
acquit him. In several instances, there were cases where the of
fense was not considered great enough to suspend the man from
college for a year, but if the Committee would have had greater
leeway, he would probably have been suspended for a semester, or
compelled to drop the subject, or some such similar punishment.
It is to be greatly regretted that the first amendment did not
pass. We believe that this amendment would have been a great
factor in the elimination of cheating in examinations. It apparently
had one weak point, which was the cause of its rejection, and this
weak point was the possibility of two or more evilly inclined students
making a "frame-up" on an innocent man. The logical thing to be
done now is to revise this amendment so that this objectionable
feature will be eliminated, and then submit it again to the student
body for ratification.
MAKE WISE SELECTIONS
In the immediate future, officers of the three underclasses as well
as those of the Athletic Association, will be elected, and the COLLE
GIAN takes this opportunity to urge each man to vote for the candid
ate he thinks is best fitted to fill the position.
Probably the most important offices to be filled nest yoar are those
. _the_P.resentjuitior and Sophomore classes, and those - of the Athletic
Association. Next year: will be Penn State's first complete year in peace
time since the term of 1915-1916, and the reconstruction work of the
college,—the return to normal conditions,—will still be in progress
Upon the officers of the Senior class will devolve a great deal of re
sponsibility, and especially so in the proper administration of the class
affairs throughout its last year in college.
The officers of next year's Junior class will be of alniost equal
importance, for to them will fall the task of taking the new Freshman
class,—the class of 1923,—in hand, and inculcating into them the ideals
and spirit of Penn State. The importance of wise selections in the case
of the Athletic Association also ca nscarcely be underestimated, for
from present indications, Penn State will have the most successful ath
letic year in its history, and competent men are needed, therefore, to
head the athletic organization. While the offices of next year's Sopho
more class will not be quite as important as the other two classes,
it
is necessary for Penn State's welfare, however, that good men also
be elected for these.
~WDf~i11Y:1~:5I:~.Xy~i1~i~Yl~(e~
Penn State's big "booster mass meeting" will be held in the Audi
torium Friday morning, at eleven-ten. As this will be one of the most
important and eventful mass meetings ever held at Penn State, and one
which will determine the future of the college along a certain line to
a great degree, it behooves every man, every woman and every faculty
member to be present. Let us be there, and by our presence aid in
making a bigger and better Penn State.
