• discussing on a periodic basis procedural questions that may have arisen in past cases and how these can best be resolved for future cases
• reviewing standard penalties invoked for certain kinds of violations so that consistency and fairness may be maintained
• proposing revisions to the Honor Code and generally promoting high standards of integrity in academics.
