Strange parametrization in polr
In Venables \& Ripley 3rd edition (p. 231) the proportional odds model
is described as:
logit(p<=k) = zeta_k + eta
but polr apparently thinks there is a minus in front of eta,
as is apprent below.
Is this a bug og a feature I have overlooked?
Here is the naked code for reproduction, below the results.

polr in MASS
Hi, I am trying to test the proportional-odds model using the "polr" function in the MASS library with the dataset of "housing" contained in the MASS book ("Sat" (factor: low, medium, high) is the dependent variable, "Infl" (low, medium, high), "Type" (tower, apartment, atrium, terrace) and "Cont" (low, high) are the predictor variables
