Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Quips and Cranks, Vol. 12: 1908-1909
The details of the workings are these: It is specified that each man pledges his honor to report all damage which he may commit; also that if a person fail to report any damage that he himself has done, and another man shall have seen him do it, the latter is Of honor bound, after due advertisement, to report this damage. There is a committee composed of two members from each class. This committee receives a list Of all damages or defacements, with the Proctor's valuation, collects for these, and advertises on the bulletin boards all unreported damage. Of course there is always a small amount which can not be located and collected, so this is divided equally among all the students, being taken out of the damage fee.
This plan has been in operation for about a year now, and so far it has been quite a success, the amount of damage having been very greatly diminished.
The twofold Honor System is one of our greatest boasts, and we think that we are justly proud of this new departure.
