<p>Wait, scratch that.</p>

<p>Lying is DEFINITELY the worst idea you could ever come up with. </p>

<p>Think of all those people who got in through hard work and diligence. Cutting lines will get you nowhere.</p>

<p>Please…stop responding to prosperous like she honestly wants to attend Exeter or she is genuinely interested in this question, other than to see a bunch of gullible people offer up the obvious answer and express the shock her question was calculated to evoke.</p>

<p>It truly is a complete waste of time. And look – I’ve done it again.</p>

<p>Oops! My bad on not giving props to D’yer for being the first to identify the ■■■■■…</p>

<p>I guess a few of us are a little slower on the ■■■■■ patrol. However, ■■■■■-outing is alway better with company. :)</p>

<p>Major School Rules at Choate, in order:</p>

<ol>
<li><p>no drugs</p></li>
<li><p>no alcohol</p></li>
<li><p>“unsafe practices and possessions” - i.e. weapons, fires, fireworks, endangerment, master keys.</p></li>
<li><p>violations of curfew and absence from campus w/o permission (doesnt include town unless after study hours). </p></li>
</ol>

<p>But basically one of the major, major school rules that they stress is academic integrity, and you’re kicked out faster than you can say “But I thought SparkNotes were allowed” if you do anything like that.</p>

<p>Please do not feed the animal!</p>

<p>Sparknotes aren’t allowed at Choate? Why? I read them over the summer about a book. Can’t remember which one. They were quite interesting.
blairt, just wondering, what in particular was that referencing? Is Finis origine pendent of motto of Exeter as well? I know it’s the motto that goes on our seal with the bees. :)</p>

29

<p>Why yes, prettyckitty, Exeter has been borrowing it from us for the past 225 years. I think what Blairt meant was that one could start out by lying, but that bad beginning does not bode well for the rest of one’s academic career.</p>

30

<p>Indeed so.</p>

<p>Man am i a while off the topic but don’t lie. Everybody on this board is an honest person willing to help you but if you lie you should expect the reactions you received.</p>
