Registration: Chaos, Frustration

"The chaos and frustration of registration began yesterday as students walked, milled, waited, pleaded and wrote their way into the second semester. For some, the problems were to have been lessened; pre-registration was experimentally attempted in several colleges. ... For those who weren't lucky enough to be pre-registered, the traditional 200-yard line in front of the Student Union Annex greeted students ready to pick up their card packets."

These days, thanks to the advent of the Internet, registration is a good deal less problematic. We can register for all the classes we want from the comfort of our own homes. Unless said classes are already full, don't have enough professors to teach them, become unaffordable - the list goes on and on.
