I favor the presence of a code of conduct; it gets regulations in black and white. IRTH CONTROL FRI hopes that in a few years time, we will all be able to rationally judge its merits as well as its short-comings and feels we may very well see that it has been of bene- fit to all those affected by it. Having stood the test of time might also prove only to place it among the classics. With the present growth of the uni- versity, it is feasible that less attention will be paid to the in- tricacies of the code simply because Due to certain possible legal complications the AD originally scheduled for this space not be run.
