Registration
Changes Set
In 4-Terms
By KAREN HYNECKEAL
Personnel Director
Students returning to cam
pus this week and preparing!
to embark on the new four-1
term plan will have their first|
taste of change when they reg-j
ister. i
First of all, students must pre
sent two Number Two cards in
stead of one in order to be ad
mitted to Recreation Hall today,
tomorrow and Friday.
One card must contain the stu
dent’s schedule for the fall term'
and the other, his schedule for
the winter term.
The latter will be handed in be
fore the student reaches the main
floor to register for the fall
courses.
The winter term schedules
will then be turned over to the
staff in the Registrar’s office
end during the fall term, this
efaff will fry to make it pos
sible for students to be assigned
to the courses they want to take
during the winter term.
This process will also make it
easier for the various departments
to schedule additional and/or
fewer classrooms and professors
according to the demand for the
different courses, Warren Haf
fner. assistant to the registrar,
said last week.
"Because this new system is
designed to help students get the
courses they need, it is especial
ly important that they cooperate
by making a serious effort when
planning schedules in advance to
request only the courses they
really want to take,” he said.
Toward ihe end of ihe term,
all students will be able lo go
to ihe Registrar's office and
verify the schedules they set
up in September. Students will
be told at this time if it has
been necessary lo make any
