dmissions, Registration, and Special Programs formed HE GREAT THREE IN ONE The lines seemed to extend for miles as e students at PSU braved the blazing sun register for their fall classes. Many of the udents had gotten there during the warm orning hours so that they would not have I wait in the long lines under the cruel hot in just to have their class choices all filled ) when they finally made it indoors. But, for Uiose who arrived just a little late, the ocess was torture. As junior Randy Carlyle Lit it, I hate it! It ' s such an outdated system, ley need to put it all on computers. And lat was just what the admissions and regis- ation staff planned to do. As the year progressed, plans were made that would eliminate the endless registra- tion lines and put the entire process on computers. The staff hoped that the system would be in operation by the beginning of the ' 88-89 school year. This would make the registration easier for the staff as well as the students. The students, once they finally got in- doors and all registered, took great advant- age of the special programs offered by the university. Many students found the Special Services program a priceless asset to the university. This service, designed to help tutor students in reading, vocabulary, and studying as well as a host of other things, was met with nothing but praise by the students. One sophomore commented that they are Great! They really do try to help. Many also supported the Upward Bound program. It was designed to help high school students with high academic abilit y reach their full potential. Though some things remained primitive, many things progressed full speed ahead, and all for the improvement of education tomorrow.
