I graduated from Rice University, which has an honor code. It worked
pretty well there, but for reasons which may not exist at a community
college, mainly very competitive and high-minded students believing in
fairness and not wanting the next guy to have an unfair advantage.
I am sure there is a lot of information about it somewhere on the Rice
web site: http://www.rice.edu/
Hmm, I'll have to go check for it now. Email me privately if you want a
'testimonial' of sorts about it.
