fun of
a
beach party
By John P Elder
Co-News Editor
Students were treated to a beach party in
Rogers Gymnasium last Friday night, as
the SCC kicked off the spring semester
with it's first student-funded activity.
"It was a real blast," said SCC social
activities chairman Jamie Crankfield.
"The people were dancing, and everybody
had a great time."
Although only 211 campus students
attended the event, Crankfield did not feel
that the number of people adequately
represented the success of the party.
"When I judge the success of the party.
I don't look at the number, I look at how
the people there felt about it (the party)."
said Crankfield.
However, Crankfield did say that he
would have liked more people to come to
the event to see how their activity fee is
being spent.
"People should come down to see how
their money is being spent." said
Crankfield. "Too many times people
listen to others about how an event was
instead of seeing for themselves."
Because of student apathy. Crankfield
believes that many complaints he receives
about campus activities are unjustified.
"1 don't appreciate complaints from
people who don't come to SCC meetings
to make suggestions," said Crankfield.
To combat some of the student
complaints. Crankfield said he would like
students to come up with more ideas for
social activities.
"I can always use some new ideas," said
Crankfield. "We want to know what other
things the students would like to see."
In response to the question of why so
few students attended, Crankfield said,
"I'm not sure, but it was their loss.
Where else can you get free Haagen-Dazs
ice cream?"
One student who attended the event said
of the lack of attendance. "If the
fratemities had seen how many girls were
there, they would have probably shown
up."

Committee seeks changes in registration system
By John P Elder
Co-News Editor

Members of the University's ad hoc
committee on pre-registration revealed
some of the flaws of the new scheduling
system in a meeting last Friday.
The committee, formed by Dr. Ronald
Woodbury, vice president of academic
affairs, and composed of faculty and
students from various departments on
campus, discussed the advantages and
disadvantages of the system.
According to student member Machelle
Grace, the committee discussed what
changes could be made in time for the fall
1988 pre-regisu^tion.
"Basically, all we did was present the
good points and bad points of tfie system,"
said Grace. "Most of the problems we
encountered we had anticipated, and we'll
discuss what changes can be made with the
administration today."
In what came as a major surprise to
some members, the committee found out
that the pre-regisUxition process was not
fully carried out
According to Dr. James Smalley.
associate dean of academic affairs, the
pre-registi^tion process was set up to find

out what courses had the heaviest demands
andtiiento open up tiie appropriate number
of sections.
However, according to Grace, the
computerized system was never set up to
respond to the pre-registration tally.
"The whole purpose for pre-registration
was to make scheduling easier, but for
some reason, the results of it were
overlooked," said Grace.
In addition. Grace said that the computer
system permitted some underclassmen to
receive courses before upperclassmen. To
accommodate the upperclassmen, some
freshman were bumped out of upper level
courses during thefirstweek of classes.
Another reason Grace believes the
system is flawed is that the administration
was pressed for time in preparing the
system.
"They jumped into it so quick that they
didn't have time to think about it," said
Grace. "Dr. Smalley's staff was meeting
some deadlines by only five minutes.
That's no way to have to run a system."
Despite the shortcomings found at the
meeting, Grace said that the committee
feels that there must be a pre-registration.
but that it should be expanded to include
tentative course times.
"Everybody (in the committee) favors a
pre-registration system, but we would like

it to have the times of tfie courses listed."
said Grace. "That way students could pick
the class time they want."
However, not everyone on the committee
believes that a change in the system will
correct the campus' registration iR'oblems.
Committee member Dr. Howard
Congdon.
professor
of
english/joumalism/philosophy. tiiinks that
the scheduling problem will continue until
more general education classes are made
available to students.
"It's a matter of mathematics." said
Congdon. "No matter what kind of system
we get, we still can't serve the students
until we get more staff. There just aren't
enough general education classes."
Another possible change that was
mentioned at the meeting was for atiiletic
practice sessions to be scheduled as classes
so that campus athletes can avoid further
scheduling conflicts
As to the fuiure of the system, Grace
hinted that tioubled times are not over for
the new system.
"Of course there is room for
improvement, and that's why the
committee was formed." said Grace. "I'm
not sure what changes can be made before
tiie fall pre-registi-ation. but the next one*
should be bettertiianbefore."
