REGISTF BY LARRY EDMOND Registration was better, con sidering, said student government association President Rita McKinney Wednesday morning in her office. Then after a brief pause she slammed down the cigarette which she had toyed with, admonishingly waving her finger, she intoned strongly, "But if the administration thinks we're through just because we've cured a symptom of the ov'rall disease then they're wrong.'' Before she could conplete her statement, Eileen Berlin, Secretary for Student Welfare, had echoed the president's opinion and added" computerized registration is our goal and we intend to see it im plemented."

One case she reported was in the geology department. The department had told other departments it would pre-register all students regardless as to Jews Analysis whether they were geology majors of or not. Some students wanting to take geology courses told her at registration their advisors never told them they could pre-register in geology courses. Whether the claim the departments failed to tell their students of or whether the geology department ever informed all departments was not deter mined, Berlin said.

The final major- complaint which she lodged against registration, was one against the procedures for late registration. Some depart ments obviously feel thay don't ,have to be there for late registration, she said. In some cases only department irepresentatives; were at tables. No professors were there who could help students with late problems. One of the things which helped registration Berlin said, was the gripe table which the student government operated. Of the students who came to the table, mostly with complaints that they could not get into a course which they needed, "about 95 per cent of those we got into the course," she said. Visibly angered Berlin said, the people at the pharmacy table were the rudest people at . registration. "One professor was rude to the students and it really made me mad." On Friday she said the pharmacy department was an hour late in setting up their table. Long lines formed in front of it and when she went to investigate she was appalled by the treatment of the students. er for every taste nedel 19, Marantz ip, and dollar valu putation for quali1 fraid that your st( htfully engineerec annel.
