etting Our Sights The 1988-89 year at Sul Ross began much like a shooting match. Just as contestants must register for each event, pay their entry fees, and have the right equipment, students started the year with registration, paying tuition, and buying supplies. Many freshmen attended the 1988 Summer Orientations held in June and July which kept the lines from getting too long at registration. This year’s orientations hit record level attendance with a total of 203 freshmen participating in the two-day events. Many future roommates, professors and friends met during orien¬ tation. Returning students either pre-registered in April or went through fall registration in the Graves-Pierce Gym on August 23-24. It was two days of hard work for both the students and staff, but at long last, the promise of an efficient, computerized registration was realized. The long lines of past registrations made many students decide to pay the $15 late fee and late register, only to discover that these lines were just as long. With registration over, the lines moved to the University Bookstore for books and supplies. The often repeated complaint about the outrageous prices was heard, but even louder were the complaints that too few books had been ordered and students had to wait weeks before the books were available.
