The Honor Court Left to right : D. Huddle, B. Blevins, N. Utz, B. White, D Deans. To thine own self be true, and it must follow as the night the day, thou canst not then be false to any man.” Shakespeare has here captured the essence of the honor code. The Honor Court seeks to uphold the Marion College ideal and is concerned basically with the academic phase of student life. The Honor Court feels that honor and self-respect are indispensable qualifications for a successful person. It is for this reason that the Honor Court strives to uphold the honor code of Marion College. Barbara Blevins . Senior Representative Debbie Deans . Senior Representative Donna Huddle .

Your student government earnestly solicirs your co-operation in upholding the Marion Ideal. The Student Council holds regularly scheduled weekly meetings and such other emergency meet¬ ings as are necessary to consider violations of the Honor Code.
