Breaches of honor that have previously gone unpunished will now be brought before the board and casca of cheating on imth major and minor tests will carry more severe punishments. Convictions of cheating will mean automatic withdrawal and failure in the course concerned and the period of suspension from school- will be lengthened from weeks to semesters. Bad -Check Cases The board has also discussed the numerous cases of bad chec4ks being written at the Uni .erlIty Deipository "nd has de cided that such cases be brought before the Honor Council. The board has held that passing bad checks intentionally is a violation of the honor principle. The board itself is now un dergoing a thorough orienta tion program so that its mem bers will be able to carry their duties as members. Members of the faculty are being contacted to bring about a better coopera tion between the two bodies, and students will be notified of the e new efforts and aims of the board. A publicity committee, headed by Bennie Greer, has been named by the board to acquaint the e students with this program. University Student Critically ljured In Wreck Monday - John S.

Smith annnunced yes- U terday. C Classroom work should be so j distributed" over the week that a u faculty member or student would cl carry not more than three hours on any single day except in, an d emergency case, when a f4;ulty b member or student may carry e four classes on not more than one % day per week, he said. C The four-hour a week classes a are to be spread evenly over the a weej< so that morning classes are held Mondays through Saturdays and afternoon classes are held S Mondays through Fridays. It is expected that there will be o a sufficient number of students in any course offered to warrant the course being given, as is required ( for the regular term work-that ji is, not less than five students for a graduate class or 10 students S for an undergraduate class. C Department heads in arranging for their summer term schedules i are authorized to employ part- C time faculty members and to di vide a course into two six-weeks R periods where practicable or de- C sirable. Thus, a faculty member li would not be required to teach the entire 12 weeks, but may teach one of the two six-weeks periods instead.
