Cuts continue to hamper Western Karen Stewart Staff Writer Budget cuts have been and clearly still are affecting the campus. Faculty positions have been excised and supplies limited. Dr. Ron Core, Budget Director of the Business Affairs office, clarified some aspects of how budgetcuts are dealt with throughoutthecampus. There are three categories of budget cuts: absolute cuts, negative reserve and cuts throughout course of campus. The Vice Chancellors who represent the divisions of the university like academic affairs, business affairs and special services put together a plan to divide up the reduction so as to place as "little impact as possible" on the students, explained Dr. Core. Then the deans are allocated the money. Some of the effects on the students range from thermostats lowered to seventy degrees to larger classes because of the loss of eight faculty positions. The CAP Center has not been severely See "Budget"Page Two Registration process streamlined and personalized Kim Shively Staff Writer The registration process has been altered for summer and fall classes. The entire process has not been rerouted, however there are a few significant changes that students need to know. Dates and times for registration remain similar to previous semesters. The administration has suggested many advantages could result due to the changes in procedure. Concerning the changes in registration Micheal Malone, Assistant Vice Chancellor of Academic Affairs, said, "it would allow the personal ity of the school to come forward." This could have a positive effect, making registration more personalized and less centralizedaccording to Malone. John Dupree, regis- t r a r , "the goal central- depart- leveland ally to u 1 t y registra- could be tralized faculty prob- compli- could be cards. Advising began March eleventh and will continue through April twelfth. Students will be able to register from March twenty- fifth until April twelfth. Registration will be held from 9 a.m. until 4 p.m. each day. Students are invited to express their opinions concerning the new registration procedure. "The goal is to decentralize to the department level and eventually to the faculty level." John Dupree, registrar holds, is to de- ize to the m e n t eventu- the fac- level." If t i o n decen- to the level lems and cations resolved on the spot. Finally, the decentralization could result in students being able to register themselves. Another possible advantage could be to cut down the traffic in the Ramsey Center. Having students register in their respective schools will also link advising and registration closer to the departments of each school. This could have the advantage of making registration a less time-consuming process. The registration process begins as usual with the students picking up their permits to register. Students must then meet with their advisors in the school of their major or go to the CAP Center. Students are then directed where and when to register by their permit Early Registration Dates & Places Seniors: March 25 Juniors: March 26-28 Sophomores : April 1-5 Freshmen: April 8-12 Arts and Sciences: Business: CAP Center (undecided): Education and Psychology: Graduate School: HFR 250 Nursing and Health Scinences Undeclared CLS, EMC, ENVH, MRA, Nursing Technology and Applied Science Undeclared, Art: Criminal Justice: Industrial & Engineering Tech Human Environmental Sciences Registrar's Office (Backup if any lines) Stillwell 203 Forsyth 128 Mckee 50 Killian 262 Moore 106 HSMS Moore 132 Moore 209 Belk 205 Belk 200-A Belk 224 Belk 221 HFR 201
