It is well known that when mental illnesses are left untreated and unaccounted for, the consequences can be severe for an individual and the community they inhabit. The University’s own community of trust is no exception. Students do not lie, cheat or steal in a vacuum — rather, their lives are populated with stressors that lead to dishonorable behaviors. Mental health issues, specifically, can exacerbate these stressors and promote transgressions against the community of trust. This is something that the Honor Committee has realized and attempted to address through its current Contributory Health Impairment procedures. These measures, however, fall short of their intended purpose because they continue to place the burden of self-advocacy on students.

Your fly is down!” To avoid these sorts of embarrassing situations — I’m embarrassed for you — you must take nickname-crafting into your own hands.

Senior guard Reece Beekman and sophomore guard Isaac McKneely led the scoring for the Cavaliers with 19 and 15 points respectively, but struggled to get other players involved in crunch time.
