No, Mikie Sherill violated the Naval Academy honor code.

True. She did.

My understanding is that, yes, technically, she violated the honor code by not turning it classmates who cheated on the final exam by studying an advance copy of it, but she kept kept her own honor by not being a snitch. What's more important? Hard to say. Some "honor codes" deserve to be violated in certain circumstances. See the movie "Scent of a Woman" - great Thanksgiving time move, BTW!
