I'm on the Honor Council at Colorado College (its a group of kids that tries to promote a culture of integrity on campus through education [all the first years get presentations and candy] and events [barbecues, coffee, etc] -- we also investigate and have trials of people accused of plagiarism, cheating, etc) -- and each year we go to the CC cabin which is about an hour away from campus in the mountains. At the cabin we do new member orientation, as well as discuss new issues for the council. The new members are really great/intelligent/cool - one of them had a puppy named Koru that came up to the cabin with us (really awesome puppy, not quite Mushu level, but we are talking pretty great). We discussed two main issues. First was concerned with aderol and ritalin and whether or not the illegal use of these 'study' drugs is something that the honor council would persecute. The second was about confidentiality and the right of the accused to evidence brought against them. Anyhow, some pretty interesting topics but I won't go into them right now. Later in the night we had smores and dinner. Good time overall.
Trouble In Vegas (ultimate frisbee tournament) is coming up next weekend and I can't wait. Nikki is going to be taking some pictures with a super camera her dad lent her, so hopefully I'll have some neat stuff to post afterwards.
