LAW SCHOOL HONOR SYSTEM.

LAW SCHOOL HONOR SYSTEM. i As previously announced, owing to @ desire on the part of the faculty of the law school to have the opinion of the members of the school in regard to the honor system, canvass of the students has been taken by which practically every man in the school has been called upon to cast vote. By this canvass it is shown that approximately two-thirds of the school favor the introduction of the new system. The matter will now be allowed to rest until the next faculty meeting, May 2S.
 In the opinion of many of the faculty the objection of so large minority is a very serious obstacle to the introduction of the system.
