Two points.....

Gen Clark forgot all about the cheating scandal in the 50's which wiped out the Army football team.

As an Academy grad, would you speak to the question of ignored violations of the honor code. It seems to me that if these many were guilty of drug, and related charges..then a great many more had to know about it. This type of activity doesn't exist in a vacuum. And the honor code, as I understand it, specifically requires that this activity and those who indulge be reported. So doesn't that make the failure more widespread.

Something I've always wondered was how "lie, cheat or steal" captures knowing someone is smoking pot. That person isn't lying, cheating or stealing, just toking up. So I'm not sure I get how the honor code is used to toss people out for just knowing their neighbor is smoking pot.
