Most University students were
busy forgetting exam week mis-
cry when the first full-size issue
of The Daily Nebraskan since
1939 appeared on January 30
beven men, however, were
likely to remember a special
kind of trouble that the week
brought them or that they
brought to it. They were the
three seniors, two juniors and
two sophomores who were su
spended for cheating in examr
nations.
Roz Howard, Student Council
president, asked the next day

cheating.
"It's unfortunate that from the
number of students who cheated
on final exams, only seven were
caught. Many more were guilty,"
tie said.

COUNCIL CONFERENCE Members of the University Student
Council were hosts to the first Big Seven Student council conven
tion in February. Council members from each school in the con
ference met in Lincoln for three days to hold discussions, banquets
and attend basketball games. Main object of the convention was
to acquaint each school to what Councils from the other univer

bined councils was to pick the migration site early. As a result
of that resolution, the Interim Council last night chose Kansas
University as the 1950 migration destination.
