The USAF Academy Honor System.
Abstract:
In June, 1984, the Superintendent of the USAF Academy suspended cadet administration of their honor code. This was a result of revelations during the Spring, 1984 honor scandal at the USAF Academy. An Honor Assessment Committee was formed to review the situation and present an acceptable honor system to be voted on by the Cadet Wing. Many of the recommendations were based upon an indepth survey given to cadets in the Fall of 1984. Follow-on surveys were given in Spring, 1986 and Spring, 1987. This research project evaluates these three surveys to determine cadets perceive that their honor system is working. The study concludes that there are many areas cadets have identified on these surveys as needing change. Recommendations are made based on the findings.
