The Honor Committee recently discussed plans for a community forum meeting to be held Oct. 15 in the Rotunda Dome Room.
According to A-J Aronstein, vice chair for community relations, the meeting will begin at 7:30 p.m.
The meeting will be "a normal Committee meeting, but basically we will have it be really informative instead of debating things," Aronstein said.
Unlike normal Committee meetings, a closed session will not follow the open meeting. The Committee meeting will conduct its closed business by e-mail for that week, Committee Chair Alison Tramba said.
Aronstein said the Committee plans to discuss the purpose of each sub-committee, the soon-to-be-released faculty survey, the conscientious retraction campaign which is set to begin Oct. 16 and the single sanction, as well as debate changes to the current by-laws.
"By-law discussion isn't that thrilling," Tramba said. "But it's important because students are frequently concerned about how clear our policies are."
Tramba also said she will moderate a question-and-answer session after the committee conducts its business.
Aronstein encouraged Committee members to take professors out to dinner or coffee before the meeting to encourage them to come.
"I'd like to have professors from every school in that building," Aronstein said. "I'd like to have student leaders from every school in that building.
Tramba stressed the importance of attendance for Committee members.
"I'd also really appreciate it if everyone were there," Tramba told the Committee.
A reception on the Lawn will be held after the meeting, Aronstein said.
"I don't know what kind of metric we'll use to consider whether it's a success or not, but I think it will be attendance and whether or not people are talking," Aronstein added.
