admin istr a tio n Harold looked at the calendar . . . time to pick up that regis- tration date again. Then registration would come with its endless lines, lines . . . sections . . . cords to fill out, almost a million, if he remembered correctly. He had carefully avoided all connection with the Ad Building whenever pos- sible since his nerve-shattering experience in sections his first quarter at the Institution of a Thousand Years. Now he was a senior . . . sigh, only one more trip to the Ad Build- ing for registration. Harold was among those unfortunate few who never really took time to find out what went on in the Ad Building be- sides registration. He didn ' t realize how important an ef- ficient, capable administrative staff is to a university. Never having investigated the functions of the administration, Har- old wasn ' t aware of the men and women in the bleak, gray building who try to maintain and improve the financial, physical and educational well-being of our University and its students.
