Honor System
Serves Unique
Function At U'
Engineering College Uses
Plan That Was Begun
At Michigan In 1916
Unique in its function and idealis-
tic in purpose is the honor system of
the Engineering College.
The general administrative plan of
the honor system now enters its 25th
year of successful operation. It is an
engineering tradition that was first
presented to the faculty by a group
of students in 1916.
Administered By Students
Since its early beginnings, the hon-
or system has been administere and
promoted entirely by the studeints,
and the history of the college shows
that the faculty has never asked for
alterations, nor has it in any way
attempted to control or restrain the
student committee. The system it-
self is based upon the principle that it
is dishonorable for any man to re-
ceive credit for work which is not
the result of his own efforts.
The administration of the honor
system is controlled by a committee
of nine students: two from each of
the classes and one advisory member
from the Senior Class. These mem-
bers are chosen by the students them-
selves.
Students Must Sign Pledges
In operation, the honor system re-
quires each student to sign a state-
ment that he will uphold the prin-
ciples of the system, and on each ex-
amination, he is required to sign a
pledge that he has neither given nor
received aid during the examination.
The respect and trust of the faculty
in the integrity of the students is evi-
denced in the method ofdconducting
examinations in the engineering col-
lege. The instructor, though avail-
able for consultation at all times,
leaves the room during the course of
the examination, and students who so
desire may leave the room to smoke
or converse: the only limitation be-
ing that they ,may not discuss the
examination.
Students Investigate Infractions
Infractions of the honor code are
reported to and investigated by the
student committee, and the accused
student is brought before the com-
mittee to stand trial. The decision
of the court, which may go as far
as expulsion, is then turned over to
the Faculty Discipline Committee in
thet form of a recommendation.
" Though the final action lies in the
hands of the faculty, no decision in
the history of the system has been
changed by the faculty committee.
"Perhaps the greatest good of the
Honor System," Dean Emeritus Mor-
timer E. Cooley once said in outlin-
ing the essence qf the system, "is in
the increased self-respect felt by the
student. He meets you in a different
way-as man to man . . . He is
jealous of the prestige of his college,
resents reflection and fights it if
necessary."

Prof. Warner G. Rice, recently of
the English department, will be in
charge of the University's million-
volume library, according to a recent
appointment by the Board of Re-
gents. He succeeds Prof. William W.
Bishop, retired.
The Library proper is composed of
several smaller branches, all of them
available to students and located on
the University campus. Standing in

Reveli Leads
Three Bands
Varsity, First Regimental,
Concert Units Listed
Under the baton of Prof. William
D. Revelli of the School of Music, the
three units of the University of Michi-
gan Band have a combined member-
ship of more than 200 players.
Open to anyone in the University,
the three units are the University
Marching Band, the University First
Regimental Band and the University
Concert Band.
Membership in the bands is deter-
mined by private audition with Pro-
fessor Revelli and his asistants. Audi-
tions will take place during Orienta-
tion Week every day from 9 a.m. to
12 noon and from 1 to 5 p.m. every
day on the second floor of Morris
Hall, the bandeheadquarters on the
corner of State and Jefferson Streets.
Students in the School of Music and
the College of Literature, Science and
the Arts may elect band as a credit
course.
The University Marching Band is
a combination of the Concert Band
and the First Regimental Band, with
a membership of over 125. It is most
active during the football season and
plays for all the home games of the
Wolverine eleven.
The Marching Band accompanies
the football team on at least one out-
of-town grip.
qOne of the most interesting fea-
tures of the work of the Marching
Band is that of the formations com-
mittee. Any bandsman who is inter-
ested or who has any idea for a par-
ticular arrangement is automatically
a member of the committee which
meets weekly dpring the football sea-
son to consider and discuss the for-
mations to be used.
is the General Library, the largest
unit, containing 607,615 volumes, and
14,389 maps. Containing a number
of special selections received as gifts
during recent years , the General
Library houses the Parsons Library
of Political Science, the Goethe Li-
brary, the MacMillian Shakespeare
Library and a number of other
groups of smaller size.
Opened in 1920, she large library
building has seats in its various read-
ing and study rooms for about 1,000
persons. The General Library is
open daily from 7:45 a.m. to 10 p.m.
except Sunday during the academic
year. On Sunday it is open from 2
p.m. to 9 p.m.
The William L. Clements Library
of American History, completed in
1923, contains an invaluable collec-
tion of books, manuscripts, and
maps. The library was the gift of
William L. Clements, '82, and is used
to collect materials relating to the
discovery of the western continent
and its settlement and later history.
The collection is said to be especially
rich in rare books and pamphlets
dealing with early colonial history
and the period of the American Rev-
olution.
