System.

Columbia March, 12.-Hazing,
which has been under the honor sys-
tenn at the University Of South Caro-
lima, was again placed entirely under
faculty supervision by the student
body Of the university yesterday
morning.
Several years ago the university stu
dents requested the faculty to make
hazing a part Of the honor system,
and as this was done. any hazing
charges were dealt with by the honor
systee committee of the student body.
Yesterdays motion. which was car.
ried by a large majority. rescinds that
move of several years ago, and takes
hazing out of the honor committees
jurisdiction. This means that all fu-
ture hazing charges against students
will be dealt with by the faculty alone.
