Some students waited outside of Jones Building for hours before the doors opened. Registration The ' Stand-in-Line ' Blues It was not just an ordinary day. On August 27, 1986, hundreds of students stood in line and eventu- ally filed into the English E. Jones Health and Education Building where emotions ranged from apa- thy to sheer anger. Kelly Wilkin- son, a junior, shared her feelings by saying, I think we should have some type of pre-registration be- fore a semester ends in order to eliminate some of the confusion. Evelyn DeJesus, a sophomore, said, There has got to be a better way! After standing and waiting for four hours, I was ready to drop. Other students had some inno- vative ideas concerning registra- tion, Karyn Richardson, a senior, commented, Maybe if registra- tion were computerized, the lines wouldn ' t be so bad in the future. Angie Batten, a sophomore, sug- gested, If we could register ahead of time at the end of the fall and spring semester, registration wouldn ' t be so bad. There was disagreement about how the process of registration is conducted. Bobbie Gilliam, a se- nior, said, Instead of offering so many upper level courses, the de- partments should offer more 100 and 200 level courses. These are the courses needed by the majori- ty of the students. Jason Shouse, a sophomore, disagreed, I think we need a more efficient schedul- ing system based on senior priori- ty in class registration. After standing in line for sever- al hours, some students found that the pace of registration improved once they were inside. Crystal Leigh offered, I don ' t think regis- tration was any different this year than in previous years, except that the lines where we picked up our cards were shorter because they were alphabetized different- ly. 20 Review

Once inside, the line didn ' t disappear; It duplicated into many more.
