ENTERING STUDENTS SOON FOUND OUT THAT THERE WAS NO SUCH THING AS A SHORT LINE AT UCLA, ESPECIALLY DURING REGISTRATION AND ENROLLMENT WEEK. LINES WELCOME STUDENTS TO CAMPUS After losing battle upon battle in the registration lines, over 5000 new Bruins finally were enrolled in the University. Fac- ulty counseling appointments produced perfect programs that were completely destroyed after the student discovered all the classes were closed. The campus was a picture of chaos as stu- dents rushed from building to building, adjusting their pro- grams as they ran. An unforgettable highlight was the complete physical examination at the Medical Center, and the students were sure they would need its services at the end of the week. After enduring the enrollment lines, the students braved the crowded bookstore where they were told that required books would be in the week after mid-terms. And finally, there was the student-body card picture to be taken, which everyone hurriedly hid away for fear it would be used for blackmail. After this hectic week was over, the incoming Bruins could look forward to the relatively calm business of Monday classes. Citizen oaths began the task of regis- lerine new students as official Uclans. New Bruins fought a losing battle . . . when one line ended, longer ones awaited them. Medical examinations initiated students into the intricacies of Student Health. 26

ORDERLY LINES LIKE THESE WERE COMMON OCCURRENCES IN THE BOOKSTORE AT THE BEGINNING OF SCHOOL. 27
