In summary, you will see two amendments on the ballot this year: one will either affirm the single sanction or change the constitution to allow for a multiple-sanction system, and the other will slightly reword the language passed last year in order to make the Honor Committee more responsive to student opinion.

The usage of “black” instead of “Black” is indicative of the media bias chaining my race to the perpetuated negative aspects of the color.
