EIorgantown, w. Va, February IL
The action of the board OF regents OF
the University, at their meeting in
Charleston Monday. in placing in the
hands of the president the command
ant OF cadets and the dean OF the
agricultural college all matters relat-
ing to the discipline of the university,
except that no student may be sus-
pended or dismissed without the ap-
prevail OF the president, has occasioned
great indignation among the members
of the faculty of the institution and
the students. Heretofore the matter
of discipline has been in the hands OF
the entire faculty. The students say
that they want a trial by a full jury
and not by a troumvente, and they will
make a vigorous kick.
The new rule will no doubt lie the
match to light fuse which will sooner
or later cause another of those dis
agreeable explosions in the w. V. l.
