Worth Mentioning
By Johnny Johnson
The report given in this column last week that the Arts
and Sciences Council was the only group working on an
honor code this year was in error.
A group of Air Force ROTC juniors have been making
plans for adoption of an honor code for some time and have
even written a proposed honor code which will be made public
when they feel they have “gotten it down pat.”
Meanwhile the Arts and Science Council under Tucker
Sutherland is going full speed ahead and has a meeting
planned a week from Monday night with several college of
ficials invited to talk over the plan.
