"' The University faculty yester day adopted a resolution, pro posed by the Student Council and the faculty executive com mittee, to aid in prbmoting more ideal conditions for the function ing of the honor system. The resolution follows: "It is suggested that as a member of the college commun ity each instructor has a posi tive responsibility with respect to the honor system. This re sponsibility involves appropriate interpretation of the honor sys tem -and the promotion of con ditions favorable to effective "work.
