Registration Gives Some Surprises Registration is the first thing students do in the academic year. It provides an opportunity to meet new people and to greet old friends and acquaintances. It is one of the few experiences that each student at Texas Wesleyan shares. l Registration this year was an experience that few students will soon forget. A new format for registering was im- l plemented in the hopes that it would make the process easier, but odd circumstances slowed the pace con- siderably. Instead of taking the familiar route through the gym, students were instructed to go first to the SUB for TXWECO pictures and I.D. cards, and to then proceed to I the Computer Center for the actual registering for classes ' and paying of tuition. The idea was an excellent one, but the inevitable happened - the computer broke. Although it was out of commission for only 45 minutes, the breakdowncreated a back-up that could be compared to N the 5:00 traffic on the South Freeway. Some students stood Q in line for over three hours in humid, 100-degree plus ' weather. l i lr ii' In addition to the breakdown of the system, the usual registration problems occurred. Classes closed too soon I for some, financial aid forms were in error, and general A confusion prevailed. In spite of it all, the involved parties 9 I survived, and classes began as usual. The final count for those registered was 1,530 students.
