Registration: the reign gf the IBM Registration! A long day filled with the trials and tribulations of enroll- ing for another semester of consci- entious study. Registration day dawns either bright and clear with temperatures in the 90's or cool and crisp with a light rain falling on stu- dents' eager faces. Students long anticipate the big day when they will be able to wait in line until they are allowed to pass through the door into the unknown. Counseling with very concerned advisors, filling out numerous forms, and standing in several more lines constitutes a typical registration day. Kwik -H S .
