all students in Princeton must abide by the policy of academic integrity, which is called "honor rule". This rule requires students to write a written guarantee that all written assignments are neither plagiarized nor violated other ethics. Writing down this guarantee means that the signed students have understood the "two-way responsibility" of this policy: they will absolutely abide by it and report to the school any other students who violate this policy.

I hope it helps you.
