At its core, W&L’s Honor System is a student-governed code of conduct that ensures fairness and honesty. Our students are expected not to lie, cheat, or steal, but that’s only part of the equation.
The Honor System is a commitment to accountability that connects every member of the W&L community — with their diverse opinions, backgrounds, and life experiences — in a respectful exchange of ideas. The Honor System empowers students to be their best selves, fostering a sense of personal integrity that guides them long after graduation.
