REQUEST FOR APPEAL FROM DECISION OF THE HONOR COMMITTEE

The Rector called to the attention of the Board a letter he had received from Mr. Henry S.
Haight, dated 14 November 1962, a copy of which had been sent to each member of the Board. In his
letter, Mr. Haight requested that he, accompanied by his attorney, be granted a hearing before the
Board at its earliest convenience, with respect to the dismissal of his son as a result of a breach
of the Honor System, such dismissal being effective 31 October 1961

Upon consideration of the letter the Board noted that the Honor Code, to which Henry S. Haight,
Jr. subscribed upon admission to the University, provides that there shall be no such review as is
now requested of a dismissal by the Honor Committee and, therefore, it was

RESOLVED by the Board of Visitors of The Rector and Visitors of the University of Virginia that
the request contained in said letter be and it is hereby denied
