The following is an extract from the constitution of the Council:

"The purpose of this Council is thoroughly to co-operate with the Faculty in raising the general intellectual standard at Harvard as stated in the undergraduate petition to the Faculty dated April 29, 1908, to bring before governing bodies of the University, and to co-operate with the Athletic Committee in eradicating the specific evils in the conduct of athletics. The attainment of this purpose is to be effected in part by direct jurisdiction over individual students, the method of so doing to be explained here-after, and in part by creating the general sentiment that it is a question of individual and college honor to maintain a strict attention to scholastic duties."
