The Origin• Pantaloons—def: 16th century term for
a Venetian merchant.• Loose from the waist to the knees• Tight from the knees to the ankles
Definition• Pants are considered an
outer garment of fabric which covers each leg separately
• Pants are generally expected and designed to be worn over a type of undergarment or underwear.
NO
• Pants extend from the waist (the waist referring to the hips to natural waist line) down to anywhere just below the knee and beyond.
• Pants have an adjustable waist such as an elastic waist band, a tie, a button, a zipper, a clasp or a clip. They can also feature belt loops.
• Pants are worn to increase the comfort and physical safety of the wearer while also being publically acceptable and decent.
• They are usually made from any material that is thick enough, that when stretched, does not become transparent.
• Pants cannot be made exclusively of an excessively stretchy material which stretches to form-fit the body completely from waist to ankle.
Conclusion– They do not offer
protection from physical abrasion
– They are for athletic use and not for sole use as pants
– They do not fall under the definition of pants and therefore do not have a place on campus
• Leggings DO NOT fit our definition of pants
• They DO NOT fit the Honor Code
Is this really the point?
• Does it take a definition and specific code to convince us to do the right thing?

• The Honor Code should not have to list out every little thing we can and cannot wear.
• It is called an “Honor Code” because it is based on our honor.
• Our moral agency allows us to decide what is acceptable and what is not.
• We have to be willing to accept the consequences.
• That is how the Honor Code works and not off of detailed definitions.
