51+-72 Registration is only a beginning to meeting the bills of an HSU student. He pays 5200 a semester to take four or five courses. ,-4 v Ms. Dell Green readily accepts checks to cover tuition, room and board, and activity fees. i , l c K J, , Students find that selling their old books brings in a little extra cash for new books and added expenditures. The biggest bill for on-campus resi- dents is housing and Caddo costs, Since any student living in a dorm is required to eat in the cafeteria, resi- dents are held responsible for a check in the amount of 3488.00 for a seven day meal and housing ticket and S-148.00 for five days. Although many students complain about the food in the Caddo, it really is more economi- cal than eating out every day, and the cafeteria is a good place to catch up on gossip, The cost of on-campus housing has increased considerably in the past few years. In 197-1 it only cost 5388.00 to live in the dorms with a seven day meal plan, tuition however has remained the sarne. One device the university has employed in making payments is the installment plan, where students can pay room and board on a monthly basis-5122.00 for each month. It all adds up the same, but is a little easierto handle. Another major expense is books. Some teachers require two or more texts per course, and new books can cost a bundle. The Senate book ex- change is a good means of buying used materials, and when footing a college education, a penny saved is a penny earned. X1 Expenses!9

ln looking back on registration this fall and spring, it really seemed no different from last year. So after four semesters of having to go through it, I feel qualified in speaking out on the dangers of that fatal day. Next fall on the packets will be the statement, The Surgeon General has determined that college registration may be hazardous to your healthf' And he couldn't be more correct. The fol- lowing are a few hints and clues on what to do in registering at Henderson: 1. Get in line to pick up your packet about 45 minutes before schedule. That will cut down standing in line by a half hour. 2. Wear a pair of very comfortable shoes - be prepared to stand in a series of lines. 3. Take an umbrella. While waiting for my packet as a freshman I got drenched from a sudden shower. A raincoat will suffice. 4. Make out three or four flexible schedules. Gne can naturally assume that at least one or two of his classes will be closed. All P.E. courses, Health, Fundamental Math, and Sciences fill up fast, and it usually takes two or three semester to catch them open. 5. Make sure to become good buddies with someone who registers the first hour of the first day. He can pull those valuable cards for you and give them to you before you register the next day. If you are good friends with your advisor, this can help, also. 6. Do not stand around talking to people you haven't seen all summer before you get out the carcls you need. While you are doing this, someone will be asking for a class you need and it will close before you get in line. 7. Do not cry. This really doesn't help. Freshmen who have never registered before are famous for shedding tears in the ballroom, although l have seen upperclassmen cry at times. rr, eff llGooDi.oEl me ll ll - l Q I N' M R W NNW Wx'5XQW'YN igx ' . ? l , 'll C? ww X ,.:f.ss gl ' T rj ii a l , rii- .

Make sure your advisor or anyone with authority signs your packet before you get the Dean's check. This will save you time and headaches later on. 9. After you have left the ballroom go home and take a hot shower. This will help relieve the tension and sickness you probably have come down with at this point, and will wash the day's hassles down the drain. lust think, classes start the next day, and that is a new hassle altogether to handle. One week after classes start it is time to pay tuition and fees, and the lines are as bad or worse than regis- tration. Financial Aid? Meal Ticket? Ma'am, l'm sorry but there seems to be some T mistake in your dorm assignments. No, if Goodloe is NOT a girls dormitory. n Dorm housing? I.D. pictures? Loan or Grant? You had better be sure before you go in exactly what lines to stand in, because they can wrap them- selves all around the room, creating a maze of people. With pink slip in hand, approach the pay table with hese walls would be a whole lot easier to paint the bed, closets, and desks weren't all bolted and ailed to the floor . . . ' caution and get out the 'ole check book. Writing a check for 5320.00 isn't easy, in fact it causes more pain than registration did. After this, check the balance in your bank account.
