opinion FRANKLY SPEAKING Folies Bergère Congratulations are in order to the administrators for their inspired performance at last Friday's Administrative Follies. We feel that the acts, al though obviously lacking polish, illustrated thedepth of the commitment these administrators have made to pass the three-year serial levy. It is apparent that the courage necessary for these typically straight-laced, proper men and wo men to get up in front of the entire population of this campus and make complete and utter fools of themselves comes from a deep-seated conviction that they are battling on the side of all that is good and just. We only have one suggestion. The show was so good and so entertaining that we feel it should go on tour. It would give the entire community a look at the leaders of this institution and make them aware of the lengths to which they are willing to go in order to pass a budget election. If nothing else, maybe they'll vote yes just to get rid of them. i L Commentary Registration process considered necessary Well, here we are again at that time of year-spring. This is the season that all hearts turn to thoughts of love-or registration? Yes, it is time once again for all of us to temporarily put aside our pen-knives for carving our initials in the "lovers tree", to that of a writing peri for filling out registration, scheduling and various other forms. By Dave Brandel For The Print Registration is quite different in college than that of high school. When I was in high school, we used to have a name for our registration area--"arena scheduling". This just about fit pretty well too, as you almost felt like you were back in thè times of the Roman Empire when the Emperor would throw people to the lions. However, things are some times not all that different here at CCC, as opposed to high school, as it sometimes may ap pear to someone who is just going through it for the first time. There is the normal a- mount of mass confusion with people running around like a chicken with its head cut off. They are trying to get counse lors signatures, looking for some easy class, like Basket Weaving I, Page 4 to fill out their schedules, keep ing track of the class closures or trying to find out why they are registered for girls P.E. instead of boys P.E., or vica versa. The students here seem to take it all in stride and chalk it up as just part of the "learning process". "I think it's good," Rita Mumm said. "The way it's set up there's not so much hassle. There is not a whole lot of crowding." "I have never really had any problem because I have never pre-registered. It is a lot smoo ther than PCC," Arlen Phillips said. "I don't think it's all that bad, really. I would like a lot more business classes offered. I wish they would quit changing their textbooks around. Other than that, the registration is OK. If you get in there early enough, you shouldn't have any pro blems." Ted Moulton said. "I think it has room for im provement," Linda Branscomb said. "One thing that might help is if the returning students could register by-mail and not have to go through registration. The people who work in registration do everything they can to help So, as you are going about the routine of trying to get your schedule fixed in such a way that you will have plenty of time to "sit under that old apple tree" with your sweetheart this spring, just remember that you won't have to have another nervous breakdown until it is time to register for next term. YOU KNOW. 1 PONT TH] ; THE ELTON © COLLEGE MEDIA SERVICES box 4244 Berkeley CA 91 feedback_______ I Heartfelt thanks To the Editor: On behalf of the Board of ' Directors I want to extend my appreciation for the support you have given to help us to carry on our mission of re ducing premature death and disability due to heart disease. Contributions to the Heart Association7go toward devel oping and maintaining heart health research, education and community service programs throughout Oregon. We appreciate your sending a copy of the Print, I can see why this project was such a hit on campus. Aside from raising funds, Heart Month is a time when as many people as possible should hear about our purpose. It. is exciting for us when young people become aware of the need to conquer heart disease—because preven tion begins early in life with the adoption of a life style that reduces the risk of de veloping diseases of the heart. Again, our thanks to the Print staff and to all the students of Clackamas Com munity College for their sup port. Howard Stroud, M.P.H.
