Lee was the president of my son's university after the war. He instituted a
number of things, including an absolute honor system. Anyone caught cheating
or stealing is given an opportunity to leave quietly, or to submit to a
student court and be drummed out if they're found guilty. Most tests are
given without professors or proctors present. Some are taken home by the
students. It's amazing to me, but it works.

Earlier, Iggy posted you can't cheat an honest man. This ties into the importance of
personal honor.

We all hope to deal with honorable men and women.
