I am delighted to announce the formation of the student Honor Council. This body, consisting of thirteen undergraduate students, will advise me on matters pertaining to academic integrity and will strive to promote academic honesty throughout the University community.
As you may know, since I arrived at Penn I have been working with several students, faculty, and administrators in an attempt to revamp the judicial system. One focus of these efforts has been geared toward academic integrity. The Honor Council is the first concrete product of this work and the first step in creating a true honor system for the University.
Please join me in supporting this new body.
-- Stanley Chodorow, Provost
Ed. Note: The membership of the Honor Council will be published in a fall issue.
