During their first night on campus, Hampden-Sydney’s president addresses new students in an Honor Convocation. Immediately following the Honor Convocation, the ten student members of the peer-elected Student Court lead small groups in discussion of the precepts of the Honor Code and the mechanics of the system. Every new student is required to sign a statment committing to living under the honor code. The student court has full authority to suspend or expel a student from the college for violating the code. New students are required to attend a mock honor code trial to learn more abut the honor code and to inform them of court procedures.
