Students Slow To Start Registering;
Dean Urges Early Attention To It
Slowness on the part of University
of Nebraska students in starting to
register for the second semester fol
lowing the announcement that regis
tering would start January 3 and end
January 11, is beginning to worry the
deans. Two days of the first period
are already enn and few of th stud-
ents have yet seen their adviser to
fill out schedule and tentative time
' cards.
A new plan of registering is being
put into effect this semester. The new
system calls for double registration.
Class schedules are ready at the re
gistrar's office and students should
consult these for full instructions
which were pu-bluhed in the Wednes
day edition of tho Daily Nebraskau.
The first part of the new system
extends from January 3 to 11 during
which time the students consult their
advisors and make out class and time
schedules. Woman should consult the
lean of women for approval of their
schedule and all students should see
the deans of their collepe and leave
with him a registration blank and a
statement of outshle activities.
