Millsaps is an academic community dedicated to the pursuit of
scholarly inquiry and intellectual growth. The foundation of this
community is a spirit of personal honesty and mutual trust. Through
their Honor Code, the students of Millsaps College affirm their
adherence to these basic ethical principles.
An Honor Code is not simply a set of rules and procedures governing
students' academic conduct. It is an opportunity to put personal
responsibility and integrity into action. When students agree to
abide by an Honor Code, they liberate themselves to pursue their
academic goals in an atmosphere of mutual confidence and respect.
The success of the Code depends on the support of each member
of the community. Students and faculty alike commit themselves in
their work to the principles of academic honesty. When they become
aware of infractions, both students and faculty are obligated to
report them to the Honor Council, which is responsible for enforcement.
The Millsaps Honor Code was adopted by the student body and approved
by the faculty and Board of Trustees in 1994.
