    At MSGHonestyDiscussed

    The Academic honesty policywas the main concern at Sunday'sMercyhurst Student Governmentmeeting. *iThe policy was recently sentback to MSGpfrom the collegeSenate for further discussion andclarification. 3 j ^ &The MSG reps discussed!theproposal in hopes of coming to aconsensus, but various!opinionsand ideas did not lead to anagreement. *

    j ; The MSG proposal states, "astudent caught cheating on a testuizorpaper lessJharx2^)ercen^will received O.0*for that pah-ticular^paper. However, if thetest, quiz or paper is still morethan 20 percent? of the coursegrade than the student will receivean 0.0 for the cours e." fc? 1| Jean Moniewski, SAC officer,suggested that a 0.0 be given forcheating and eliminate the 20 per-cent contingency.Another MSG rep, MissyHurlburt said our first objective isto "maintain the essence of whatwe have been building up for ayear or else we are going to loose alot of power."

    jDue to the lack of conformity,a vote was taken to decide if theproposal should be clarified orother| recommendations4 made.With a 10 to 10 vote, MSG sentthe proposal back to the academichonesty committee? for furtherrecommendations because of a tievote.In other MSG action, the lastrevisions of the Constitution weremade, how ever, they will be votedupon at Sunday's meeting. f-\One revision brought aboutsome co nfusion, concerning thescreening of clubs and organiza-tions to determine the student in-terest within the club.

    Sharon* Johns on, Associationof Black Collegians represen-tative, questioned j the annualrenewal of their application.5F Geology rep Patrick Songersaid the screening process will noteliminate active organizations butthose which lack membership andare not active fThe next MSG meeting is thisSunday at 7:30 p.m . in 114Zurn.

    From theEditorfeDesk

    One Act;Two ConsequencesTo cheat or not to cheat. It's not a question but an understate-ment. One's ethics should play a role in J abstaining from thissometimes willful act. However, the desire to do well on a test or aquiz prompts the college student to cheat. While some students getaway with it, others pay the price. The consequences can be harsh,but it seems a student who violates the academic honesty policy atMercyhurst has his option of choosing his punishment.

    "Bang! You're dead!" - Elaine Norton (r) ready to pull the trigger on her next victim, JulieJuenemann. . 5* I

    Tag-Mania CapturesStudent$They look life normal Mer-cyhurst students. Who would eversuspect them? They are womenand men, just like you and I. Butthey have a mission. They havetheir targets, and they themselvesare targets at the same timer Theyare the players of The Assassina-tion Game (TAG). S S ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^B Senior Brent Scarpo is in chargeof the game, whictubegan at thestart of Spring fterm. A pprox-imately 34 students signed up forthe game, but only about 12 re-main 'alive.'* The game, based on the moveT.A.G., has never been played oncampus before until this term.The rules and procedure for thegame are pretty simple, althoughthey have appeared to be muchmore to the participants.

    Bach player has an assignedperson they are to 'eliminate.' Noone in the game is aware of who is

    Interestfter them or even who all is in-volved in the gam e.Players are only allowed to'shoot' their targets under veryliberal. circumstances. The onlyrestrictions being they cannotshoot/ their assigned person inthe cafeteria, while in class, in thelibrary and during quiet hours ifthey live in any of the dorms, g?Each player was responsible forgetting their own toy dart gun.The T.J. Hooker and A-Teammodels seem to bejjthe preferredchoice. Although for the money,the A-Team was the!better buybecause it included targets and anofficial A-Team badge.? The game is now in round two,and will continue until there is oneperson left. At this time a partywill be given in honor of the winner and their runner-up.Scarpo got |the idea for thegame impart from the movie and

    because he had heard that othercolleges were playing the game."I wanted to startf somethingnew on campus that would catchon," stated Scarpo. He feels hehas succeeded and the game willbe continued again next year withsophomore iPat j Callahan i incharge.Scarpo feels more students willsign Sup to playlnext year. He ishappy with the turn-out this year,but thinks now that students havegotten to see the fun the playersare having, others are wishingthey had signed up.Those involved now are gettingmore and more scheming. Oneplayer waited half an hour insidetheir apartment waiting for hisvictim to come out of his. Whenhe did, the assasin "tip-toedbehind him, and cowardly shothim in the back."
