New rules speed up process Summer registration procedures defined Students registering for sum mer school at the College will be faced with major changes in the registration procedure. Expanded data processing and the use of more electronic processing equipment will mean faster handling of students once the bugs are worked out, said Chuck Adams, registrar. Some of the changeswill be in the interests of simplifying the process, Adams said. Term line numbers will be eliminated and Speech tourney nets College five trophies Seven of the College's Foren sic team's nine entrants in the Clark College Invitational Speech Tournament made it into final competition last weekend bring ing home five trophies. Carolyn Gaupo won a first in the novice persuasion class, Mitch, Newton won a second in extemporaneous advocacy and second in speech analysis, a second in after dinner speaking went to Denise Kline and a third in after dinner speaking was awarded to Lisa Thomas. Julia Chitty made it to finals in novice persuasion with Dave Jensen competing in the finals for extemporaneous advocacy. The Forensics team has come a long way from its beginnings last year, according to Speech Instructor Frank Harlow. "We started last year about this time with three or four members," Harlow said. "Now we have 12 actively involved and some of them will be returning next year to give us a good, ex perienced core. "I'm expressly pleased with the squad, they've really grown and developed as speakers from the start of the year," he said Confidence clinic offered A seminar on developing personal effectiveness will be held at the College on Saturday, May 6, from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. at the College's Community Center Building, room 117.

For example, students, who registered for Writing 121 spring term wrote 11 121 01 Writing 121 on their registration cards. Students registering for the same class summer term will simply write Writing 121-01. There will also be a new registration form which will al low the registrar's office to pick up changes in students addres ses and phone numbers at the time of registration without hav ing students fill out a separate form. These new registration proce dures are being implemented in the face of an expected doubling of student enrollment in the next ten years and the subsequent need to speed up the registration process. "It will eventually develop to the point where a student comes to the counter, gives a social security number and course number, keys the infor mation into the computer and immediately knows if there is space available and then can register at the same time," Adams said. However, this will come some time in the future, Adams said. Right now he is more interested in working out the problems that are bound to arise as the result of implementing proposed changes. "We are going to rely on students to be as accur possible and to fill oi simplified forms accurst Adams said.

Stricter veteran benefit rulings won't effect CCC students I A Supreme Court ruling re stricting the types of curriculum being offered to veterans will not directly apply to veterans at the College. The decision, implementing an 85-15 percent ratio of veterans in certain curriculums in various colleges and universities, will ap ply to all veterans. However, the possibility of veterans exceeding the 85 percent veteran quota at the College i,s slim, said John Derr, College veteran coordina tor. The 85-15 ruling means that for every 100 students enrolled in a specific course of study, the amount of veterans enrolled in that particular curriculum may not exceed 85. The recent law stipulated that any veteran enrolled in a specific curriculum who exceeds the 85 percent veteran quota will not receive his financial allotment from veteran's administration for that particular curriculum. Derr said that veterans enrol led in these curriculums prior to the March 20 ruling need not worry about receiving their mon ies from veteran's administration nor worry about revising their future scheduling plans. Derr also pointed out that veterans wishing to enroll for summer session should« the College's veterans at this time.
