Honor under review at Air Force Academy.
Byline: John Diedrich
COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. _ Cheating can mean the boot from many colleges.
Simply knowing someone cheated and not reporting it is enough to get Air Force Academy cadets expelled.
The honor code's tolerance clause _ which requires cadets to turn in anyone they know who breaks the rules _ is the most difficult standard for future Air Force leaders to live up to, cadets and officers say.
A study of the academy honor system found half the cadets questioned want to get rid of the clause.
That and other findings prompted the study's authors to conclude "confidence in the Air Force Academy honor code has seriously declined."
The report suggests a slew of reforms to restore cadet confidence in the code and the system supporting it.
