The USNA does not have an "Honor Code"- it has an "Honor Concept."
Midshipmen are also "persons of character- they do not lie, cheat or steal, or tolerate those that do."
The Midshipmen Regs go over, in great detail, how to operationalize the Honor Concept, and there are many lectures and discussions focused on Honor that you will get not only as a Plebe, but throughout your time at the Academy. Infractions can be anything from demerits and in-company repremand, all the way up to seperation, depending on the circumstances and facts, as determined by the Company officer, Conduct Board, Honor Board, and up the Chain of Command, all of whom will review the investigative findings and consider the recommendations at each level.
Lying, stealing, cheating- all serious violations that can land you in a heap of trouble, including seperation from the academy.
