On my honor...

"I have neither given or received nor have I tolerated others' use of unauthorized aid."

This is a statement that would end up at the end of tests, quizzes, homework, papers, etc. As one of my professors said once, well, really if you want, you could just come and write your name and sign the honor code. That would make something complete. I would get points taken off of some homework assignments that didn't have the honor code. And now I still find myself wanting to write it on the top of my homework and most likely my tests once they start happening. Oh, the honor code, I miss it now. Once I realized the value of it, I was quite grateful to Valpo for implementing it however many years ago. Now without it, I can't ask to take my math tests in another room, and taking a bathroom break during an exam will most likely be frowned upon. But I can still follow it.
