Registration questionnaire aimed toward better advising Think back to a few days ago when you were registering for spring term. Do you remember some questions on your packet which asked if your major was in the health sciences, secondary education or “other”? The questions were on all of the 15,000-plus registration forms and many students couldn’t figure out why. Every term the office uses that area of the packet to get special kinds of information, “quickly and easily,” he said. The Registrar’s Office uses it, as it has in the past, “as an attempt to improve the student classification system as well as student advising,” he added. This particular questionnaire was aimed at those students who have, as Carlson put it, “a dual objective.” Students cannot declare as a major, pre medicine or secondary education — they have to go through another department and the University has often lost sight of their “professional objectives” in the past, explained Carlson. By knowing what students’ final objectives are, despite their current major, the office can provide advisers or faculty committees to deal with these students, he added.
