HEARD AFTER
Honor (lode Forms Basis For College Behavior
Study Should Challenge Our Best Capacities
Irishmen and new students will have t he opportunity soon to sign the honor code. The honor code is the basis for all work here at college. We caution you not to just sign your name on the dotted line, but to think seriously about it. Think for just a moment about your sincerity when you sign it. The honor code really puts you on your honor. We say that cheating is one of the things that the honor code seeks to eliminate. By that we mean, it seeks to do away with cheating in every phase of college life. It is not concerned just with classroom eliciting, but with cheating in any form. Every student here at college desires to do good work, but let's make sure that it is our own work. However, the honor code is not just a promise that we won't steal or cheat. Honor plays a large part here at State Teachers College where we are living together with a large number of girls. Every girl has a certain pride in herself and in her school; she has enough pride to want everyone to think the beat of her and her surroundings. We should be thankful that we are living in a country where honor is highly regarded. Our honor is something that we have to live with everyday of our life, and if it isn't what it should be, we have only ourselves to blame. We couldn't possibly say what the honor code should mean to you. To each of us, it has a different meaning. But the main thing for you to remember is to let the honor code be a part of you. We. as upperclassmen, realize the importance attached to the honor code, and we are continually striving to uphold it. Won't you do your share in maintaining this code of honor?
Seemingly a trivial and insignificant cud. study really should include the majoi part of our efforts during the time wo, spi i,,I at S.T.C. Certainly most of us came to college to lean;, to acquire more knowl.d".', to become more educated. If this is true, study la important lor. according to A! . Webster, it is "the application of the mind Lo books, aits, or any subject for acquil ing knowledge". As !i> how and when one should study depends upon the individual. Approximately two hours of study and preparation should be spent for each hour of class work. Some prefer to don their plaid shirts and blue jeans and settle down to an evening of work in her room while Others who find that the telephone, radio, or friends who; drop in to call prevent her from really concentrating prefer to study in the library. Others find the quiet and solitude they desire in the empty classrooms. Here they have the use of maps, books, end the blackboard. There are many different formulas as to how to study. After locating the proper atmosphere, we must find the quickest and best way to digest the necessary information. Most people agree that notes taken on lectures In class are definitely essential. Incorporating these notes with the most imWhit Did You Leave Home? portant facts from the textbook should give Janice Slavin—S ometimes, I home. give you a good outline or condensation of wonder. the material.

Bed-Check To start off—we are all wondering just how Betty Bibb picked up poison oak at this time of the year. You tell us Betty, it's a mystery to us. Shuffle is still walking around in a daze. We can't figure out if it's from the phone call or having to get out of bed early to answer It.

Question of the Week
Success of Y. W. C, A. Depends Upon Students From year to year on our campus, girls have been given the opportunity to develop ■ well-rounded life through curricular and extra-curricular activities. One of the most important organizations on our campus is the Y. W. C. A. This coming week-end the "Y" cabinet is having a retreat at Longwood to formulate plans whereby each girl on this campus may come to know God better and to stive him more faithfully in these halls of learning. W'<•. as students, on a college campus, will live our school days to fullest only if Wt realize this fact and live accordingly. We elected the officers of the Young Women's Christian Association, pledging them our support. They strive to keep the fact before us at all times that Christ is the only Way, Truth, and the Life. We will realize the part we can play in spiritual welfare as we attend the various programs sponsored by the "Y" throughout the year. We will see, too, the part the church of our choice plays in this respect. We can help make this a most successful year for ourselves and for the Y. W. C. A. by being active in its work, by taking a sincere interest, and by realising the fact thai Jesus said, "No one comes unto the Father but by me. I am the Way, the Truth and the Light."
Voice of Our Readers Dear Editor, I think Emily Neal, senior from Chatham, has caught Die spirit of State Teachers Coleltre in the following poem. The comparison is appropriate and the advice good. If we will all "heave ho" together, we are destined to make this year at college one of the best. With new faculty additions and a new president. It Is our duty to be cooperative "working passengers". For Dr. Lancaster and these teachers wil be beginning a "voyage", too. The success of that "voyage" will depend in part upon us students. Let's show them our appreciation for their efforts, and at the end of nine months, we will be able to look back and truthfully say, "It's been Bon Voyage and a f rip of direct, smooth sailing". Sincerely, Mary Aj?nes Millner THE S.T.C. SETS SAIL EMILY C. NEAL Ahoy! there all mates! And shout you loud with glee! For we're about to begin our voyage On the good ship S. T. C. lets heave ho!
