Council
To Probe
Cheating
A Student Council decision of
two weeks ago concerning
cheating has resulted in letters
sent to all organized houses on
the campus concerning the prob
lem. The following letter has been
sent to all organized houses:
Dear President:
Below is a copy of a resolution
that has been sent to fifty-four
organized houses on the campus.
He urge your immediate consid
eration of this matter and if
your bouse favors the resolu
tion will you please sign it and
send it to Eoswell Howard. Stu
dent Council office. Student
I'nion, no later than May 17.
at the University of Nebraska
cnealing on examinations is
sometimes verr liehtlr rerarded.
and
Whereas: It must be admitted
that organized bouses must
show a good deal of responsi
bility for this behavior by their
failure to discipline and influ
ence their members, be it there
fore agreed that the below
signed groups resolve to in every
way possible prevent the mem
bers of their organization from
engaging in cheating.
President,
(me of organized bouse)
The Council felt that if enoueh
3 houses signed the pledge defi
nite disciplinary action could be
taken in the event of cheating
by the members of the houses.
A direct result of the suspen
sion of seven men last semester,
the Council's action follows
weeks cf discussion of the prob
lem. Early in the semester Roz
Howard, then president of the
Council, urged the group to
make a complete investigation
of the entire situation. As part
of this plan, the Council ar
ranged a joint meeting cf stu
dents and faculty to discuss the
problem.
A committee was formed to
act n such problems as schol
arship teaching, grading, need
for courses, exam periods, final
exams and vacations. They
drew up a five point program
which was submitted to a faculty
committee.
