<p>Tiredofsnow: Your perspective is apparently a lot more like mine-old tests were used openly as study guides by a lot of students (ironically, I didn’t do much of that myself). Yours is a good post because it might get current students (and others) to see that things like this can be viewed in different ways. I really hate to hear from a prospective student who is actually upset because of this, especially since it is so commonly practiced at all kinds of schools, with and without honor codes. Of course one of the arguments forwarded here is that it’s not a fair situation if not everyone has equal access to the materials, and I don’t know how that stands for all courses and all professors. But my guess is that with respect to the Honor System this is viewed no differently than it was in the past, rather the attitudes and opinions of some individuals have changed, in some cases pretty dramatically.</p>
