Fall 1994 Registration
Moved Like Clock Work

A smooth, quick process greeted
usiness Administration and

Academic Studies students at the fall in-
person registration. Thanks to a few
modifications in the permit procedure
and experienced staff assisting at every
step, students completed the process in
30 to 60 minutes.

The students and staff working at the
Step One Reception site in the
Sportsplex set the upbeat tone for the
registrants. This positive tone carried
through to the Advising and Course
Approval area where students found
faculty, advisors, counsellors and
registration staff to help them. At Data
Entry, students found other helpful
registration staff and cashiers to enter
their courses and deal with fees.

Dianna Larsen, registrar, credits the
success to the College staff and their
dedicated, positive manner. She also
credits such new efficiencies as daily
morning meetings during registration,
allowing for on-the-spot problem solving
and increased communication between
all areas, and pre-registration workshops
run by the Advising Centre, which were
attended by more than 600 new students.

This was the second term for in-
person Business Administration
registration. Dianna states that the
difference this year was that all
admissions were done by Beverley
Hughes, admission and registration
assistant IT in the Registrar’s office. To
quote Bruce Moseley, Business
Administration faculty member:

“Beverley did a fantastic job. Everytime I
dealt with her it was a pleasant
experience.”

Barb Robertson, associate registrar
and director of admissions, was
responsible for overseeing the admission
of all students and, says Dianna, “did a
fabulous job.”

According to the registrar, the team
involved in registration this year “gave
absolutely outstanding service to
registrants and faculty.” She would like to
thank all those involved on a daily basis --
switchboard reception, advisors, advising
assistants, counsellors, special education
advisors, registrar’s office staff, cashiers,
financial aid, Sportsplex staff, computer
services, admissions, room booking, and
facilities staff.
