End of Test Files as ASUO Project
Probable on Approval of Senate
The ASUO test files, a rem
nant of the now extinct honor
code system at Oregon, may be
discontinued immediately as an
ASUO project.
Head Librarian Carl W. Hintz,
who had been in charge of their
administration in the library's
reference room, was not to have
been in permanent charge of
them.
He told the senate winter
term that their administration
was becoming too large a job
for his staff and asked the sen
ate, through its test files com
mittee headed by Loris Larsen,
to investigate another location
for them.
SU Board Suggests
The Student Union board, to
whom the subject was taken for
suggestions, recommended that
the files be placed in the brows
ing room, which is also under the
administration of the University
library.
Beginning April 1, a survey
was conducted by the commit
tee, through the ASUO sugges
tion box in the Co-op, to deter
mine the extent of student con
cern about the files.
One result was placed in the
box, that of Zeta Tau Alpha,
who recommended that they be
continued. The committee then
assumed that they should be
continued.
Y Office . . . Maybe!
The YMCA office, under the
administration of executive sec
retary Russ Walker, may house
the files in their office in the
Student Union.
Under the new president, Dave
Roberts, Walker said, a com
mittee may be appointed to ad
minister them, keep them up to
date and complete them.
All that remains now is the
official approval of the new sen
ate, at its first meeting May 12.
The committee will recommend
that the files be abandoned as
an ASUO project and that the
YMCA be given the files to ad
minister as they see fit.
This is the end of the Oregon
honor code. The system was
abandoned, all but the test files
portion, fall term because of lack
of student interest.
