Registration, 1967 saw 6500 students enrolled at Southwest Texas State, more than 100 per cent increase. Lines, Lines, Lines Reflect Tears, Tension An eager freshman made it through the doors first, only to find out 12 that it is not speed that counts but a tremendous amount of patience. The lines never seem to end! Fall registration is hot and spring registration is wet or cold. Any way you look at it, it becomes the freshman's nightmare, the sophomore's ordeal, the junior's tribulation day and the ser1ior's hopeful dream of adegree. Although registration has improved over other years, there are still the long lines, the cards and forms to sign, the silent prayers offered hoping that the right section will be open. Much of this is in vain when the familiar words are heard, sorry, that section is closedf' Despite moments of anger, moments of despair which may bring tears and the tension that is always present .... not all is lost. When the student finally emerges from the south doors of Flowers Hall he can only look forward to the long lines of the Lair and those never ending lines at Commons and jones cafeterias.
