TO THE EDITOR:
It is hard to ignore all the recent discussions currently taking place about the honor system. It is even harder to find what graduate and professional students have to say about such an important topic on our campus.
Because graduate and professional students play a key role in the teaching mission of the University, they should also voice their opinions regarding the honor system and become active participants in the ongoing conversation.
While some teaching assistants and teaching fellows might be more involved with the honor system than others, all have an opinion about it and probably only a handful think it is perfect. Their voices should not be left silenced.
Teaching assistants and teaching fellows can anonymously or openly share their comments and insights via the Graduate and Professional Student Federation’s (GPSF) website. GPSF will then relay this information to the Honor System committees.
To take part in the conversation and contribute to the improvement of the honor system, visit GPSF’s website (gpsf.unc.edu) and click on “Get Involved.”
Your opinion matters. Please share it.
