I'm in Mudd's class of '27 (and I was on the honor board for 2 years), and I do think the honor code system has gotten somewhat less functional over the time I've been here. But I think a majority of students and faculty still want to make it work.

Wait, why can't the students be punished?

This was during the start of the covid disruptions, so students were allowed to get away with almost anything in the name of covid-related stress.

50% of the human population will at some point in their life have periods, perhaps; but presumably (due to childhood and menopause) less than 50% of the human population has recently experienced a period.

Should the Spanish government decide what is "misinformation"? Should it be forbidden to read false or misleading statements on the Internet?


Green cards are for permanent residency, so it makes sense to me that someone would live in the US for 30 years with one. That seems very different than spending over a decade in the US without any permanent status, just temporary visas.


The notion that community colleges can't use .edu no longer seems true. When I took community college classes, I got an @my.smccd.edu email address.


The rules changed several times.

My community college was occ.cccd.edu when I attended, where cccd.edu was the community college district, and they had registered their domain in 1993, but now the individual colleges have their own domain names, registered in 2002, 2004 and 2007. But there definitely was a time where only 4 year schools and museums were getting new .edus


Without court approval, no one under 16 can get married in any US state.


Why shouldn't Agriculture scale with population? Presumably a larger population involves more food being sold in the US (and grown in the US if the share of exports/imports remains the same).
