Discussion Topic
• Rob, a junior, is good friends with Ben, a knob –
they are from the same hometown. On Saturday
morning The Citadel football team wins and
knobs are granted leave until 0100,
upperclassmen get an overnight. Ben comes
back for 0100 All-Ins and meets Rob in his room.
Hearing about a party downtown Rob gives Ben
an extra pair of junior shoulder boards and the
two of them leave to take the overnight and go
downtown. Honor Violation(s)?
Prepared by the 2012-2013 Honor Committee
Discussion Topic
• What if a cadet comes into the barracks, shortly
before all-ins are completed, to “check in” with their
weekend duty teams. They notify the all-in takers
that they are present for all-ins and then leave again
for the night (often with their cars still running
outside or a ride waiting for them). This
demonstrates that they have no intention to spend
the night in the barracks and that they are reporting
to their weekend duty teams merely to avoid the
consequences of a night out.
Prepared by the 2012-2013 Honor Committee
Your thoughts
• Would you consider this type of situation to be an
act of deception to try to convince the all-in takers
that the cadets in question are in the barracks for
the night?
• Is this purely a disciplinary issue?
• Would you consider this to be living by the “Spirit
of the Code”
• How do you think these actions might affect
underclassmen’s impression of honor at The
Citadel?
