Rule Clarification

As provost, Mr. Hereford also chaired the ad
hoc committee that drafted the recently
released code of student conduct.

In discussing the code, Mr. Hereford stated
that the rules were only a clarification of the
old rules of "ungentlemanly conduct"
and "conduct tending to bring discredit upon
the University." The need for such a
clarification came, he said, from a request from
the Judiciary Committee after the strike last
spring.

President Shannon has appointed an eight
man committee to nominate a replacement for
Mr. Hereford. Chairing the committee is J.C.
Levenson of the English Department.
