PAGE • SIX gistration Tod Pre-Registration Recreation Hall By KAY MILLS News Editor The word "registration" -no longer produces the look of pure terror on the ;faces of a majority of University Park enrollees. Time was when 'Recreation Hall —scene of the three-day registra tion period which begins today— resembled the battlefields of "War and Peace" plus the string of hopeless cases left from Na poleon's retreat from Russia rep resented in the Tolstoy epic, PRE-REGISTRATION now en ables many students to whisk through Rec Hall in five minutes or less. For some, the only tiring parts of the process now are wait ing to see their advisors and standing in line outside the regis tration arena. Under the new system, stu dents prepare schedules a term early and turn them in lit Rec Hall. University personnel then complete the jigsaw puzzle con flict students formerly endured at Rec Hall. Thus, a more accur ate picture of course needs will be available for students, faculty and administrators earlier than under the former system. Those students that do have to follow the complete ;registration process may have to deal with nearly-filled or closed course sec tions, but there are fewer of Pennsylvania's youth joihing them in-the fray than in previous years.

Likewise, don't be scared away because an upyeraassman says a class is a "C course or impos sible. Different courses and dif ferent professors affect students in vastly diverse ways. After students have been around awhile, they :learn who the truly outstanding professors are—men and women who make a course worth taking if just ; for the privilege of hearing, their lec tures. If these stipulations can be met, then it Is advisable to plan classes in convenient locations and/or times. The Wagner-to-Willardirun is most taxing, even in 20 min utes. LUNCHTIME IS also a matter of note, even though many stu dents think they can eliminate it. Three weeks at that nonsense and all future schedules will include ample eating hours. Concerning the actual Rec Hall appearance: arrive early. Starting a line half an hour early is no crime and will speed the path through the entire process.
