A horrible feeling monopolizes your body. Your stomach knots, hands shake, and beads of perspiration form on your forehead. Most will agree that these symptoms are typical results of anticipating REGISTRATION DAY. You arrive 45 minutes early in order to beat the crowds and get into line. You suddenly become part of a large mass of people, and find yourself standing in a long, long hallway with no end in sight. You fumble nervously with paper, pens, and schedules. You push and shove, having difficulty controlling your physical actions. You burn with rage as people pass you by stating that they are sched- uled to register before you — Clikely story]. Finally, your time is called. You bolt to the desk and grab the registra- tion material. Next, you stagger wildly through the gym. CProfessors are stationed at their respective tables marked by signs which distinguish each course area.] At first, you cannot find a single subject that you ' re looking for. Panic strikes! Students clamour around the tables, announcing combinations of mixed up numbers and let- ters in quest of a certain course. People beg to be admit- ted to courses: they plead with the professors. Desper- ate yelps can be heard throughout the gym like. “I’ve scheduled 2 courses at B:DO!’ ' Upon looking frantically about, everything appears to be a blur — scurrying bodies, concerned faces, confused expressions. At last it is over. Five yellow cards Chopefully] are held tightly within your grasp. You collapse on a bleacher and pro- ceed to fill out your schedule. You sigh in relief for the courses that you managed to get and moan in disappoint- ment for those you did not. You stumble anxiously towards the check-out table, and then you get stamped — a signal of freedom! You escape from the gym and chat- ter about your newly acquired courses. It ' s always a relief when the registration process has en- ded, even if your schedule isn’t as perfect as you had hoped it would be. After all, schedules need not be permanent; there always remains the tempting alternative of waiting in another line on the following day — the delightful and familiar experi- ence of Drop Add.
