While other candidates talked vaguely about abstract ideas for Honor, Brian O'Neill offered concrete proposals to improve the honor system. O'Neill's proposals would go a long way to strengthen Honor and give the system more credibility with students.
O'Neill supported setting up a review panel of support officers to review trials for issues of timeliness and fairness, utilizing support officers not working on trials. This would help ensure fairness in trials and in appeals. O'Neill will stand for fairness without compromisingstudent ownership of honor, as shown by his stances dissenting from the recent jury reform proposals while he was on the jury reform ad-hoc committee.
O'Neill would work to ensure better transparency and communication so that students have more faith in the Honor Committee. He wants to enhance the orientation process so that first-years have an effective introduction to honor that will stay with them for the rest of their time at the University. The University would be well served with O'Neill on Honor.
