The day has passed when a college presi-
dent was chosen for his shining example
OF godly living rather than for his execu-
tive ability, says the Philadelphia Ledger.
The modern president is an administrator
rather than a teacher, and, as a rule, he
does not appear In the classroom, but keeps
office hours like any other man OF bust
ness. In a great university he comes but
rarely into close personal contact with the
Students. The only occasions upon whlcl
he addresses them at length are perhaps al
the beginning of the academic year, when
the freshmen are welcomed. OF al It's close,
when, on commencement day, the degrees
are conferred. Most OF his time and energy

HONOR SYSTEM AT PRINCETON.
Satisfactory Results Indicated On II
Anniversary.

Satisfactory Results Indicated ON It's
Anniversary.
Tomorrow, January IS, Is the seventeenth
anniversary of the institution of the Honor
System of holding examinations at Prince
ton university, and tho mid-year ex-
aminations beginning on the 9th of this
month will be the eighteenth set held
without faculty espionage OF any sort. Dur
ing these years there has been no question
Of the unqualified success of the practice,
and it is believed that the very few cases
of cheating detected and punished have
been practically all that ever took place.
Il pledge my honor as a gentleman
that, during this examination, 1 have
neither given nor received assistance"
That pledge, with the signature of the
student taking the examination, has
taken the place OF the old system of hav-
ing professors keep watch during tests.
1t applies to every examination taken by
a student in Princeton university, but, of
course, not to entrance examinations,
taken before matriculation.
Princeon men consider themselves under
the obligation to report any cheating that
might come under their observation in an
examination. Trial of the accused is held
by an undergraduate committee. and a
verdict of guilty results In the offenders
having the privilege OF Withdrawing from
the university within twenty-four hours or
appealing to the faculty for a review of
the decision.
In 1908, when the system was inaugu-
rated, there was a strong sentiment among
the students against the mode Of con-
Quoting examinations then prevailing. Not
only was the practice of watching to
prevent and detect cheating keenly felt,
but the shame Of the existing state OF
affairs was considered highly ~derogatory
to the moral standards OF the students
themselves.
The students suggested to the faculty
that examination be conducted along lines
similar to those in the University of Ylr.
ginia, and on January 1S, 1903, the faculty
adopted a resolution which recognized thu
r~epugnance Of the students for cheating
and the desire to have the examinations
so conducted that they would be put OF
their honor not to cheat. The esolutioi
abolished faculty supervision and estab
lished the pledge.
Nowadays, IL a professor is in the room
during a test, II is only to answer ques
lions that students may want to ask. Tn
men may leave the room and sven tn

them the utmost freedom.
