there should be easier ways With orientation assemblies completed, wary students rushed to different parts of the campus to be first in line for counselor advisement, for health X-rays, or to pick up registration packets or class cards, only to find that the line was already a block long. The serpentine lines crept slowly forward as those already in line discussed summer vacations and upcoming campus activities, just to keep their minds off their registration headaches. A variety of signs greeted students, proclaiming: ' All graduate students must stop here, Sections 1, 2, 3, 4, and 6—closed, This course is open only to students of junior and senior standing, Signature must not extend beyond this line, Pay fees here, Present X-ray cards here .
