Re "Honor passes tentative public summaries amendment," Feb. 11: Though I am a firm believer in confidentiality and respecting students' privacy, I truly believe this amendment will help the Honor Committee break down the separation between the student body and its elected representatives. By allowing students to hear the outcome of honor cases, it will engage active participation in and discussion about the system.

The reason the University of Virginia runs on one of the most successful honor systems in the country is because this system is entirely student run. By informing the students of the cases' outcomes, we are only strengthening the system. Students should be concerned about the procedures of our honor system and the outcomes of their peers' cases. Though it may encounter initial opposition, this amendment is a welcoming gesture from the Honor Committee for students to become involved and will have a positive impact on the system in the long run.\n\nTaylor Richardson\nCLAS I
