Influx creates problems . . .

they didn't make folders available until Wednesday.
"For the senior enrolling at 12 o'clock noon on Wednesday, there was virtually no time for the planning or development of a schedule," the memorandum said.
Joseph Pichler, dean of the School of Business, and Don Schoed, dean of the division of music of the School of Fine Arts, helped me to solve problems with their schools' procedures.
"Students are always free to come in during the spring and summer semesters to plan their schedule for the fall." Pichler said. "We have advisors on duty in the business office eight hours a day and all during enrollment at the Field House too."
Pichler said the school encouraged students to plan their courses as much in real time as possible.
"By the time a student reaches senior status, he or she should have a schedule planned out well before the week before enrollment," he said.
"We have to have our folders in order and ready to go for enrollment," he said, "but if we had everyone coming in for advice the two or three days before enrollment we could not do this. It would be like having to enroll our students twice."
Scheid said that a music student who had the same major throughout his college career would have the same fine arts ads and plenty of time to plan his schedule ahead.
"We think it is a great advantage to the student that we have advising and enrollment all together in the Field House." he said, "We don't lose any folders that way, and if a student has a problem while enrolling his advisor is right there to help."
However, the memorandum said Nunemaker College had no advisors at Allen Fieldhouse to freshmen and aid students. If they had a problem with enrollment.
Rolfs did praise the Kansas Union, the workers at Allen Field House, the Admissions Office and all who assisted with pre-enrollment.
Jerry Lewis, director of freshman and sophomore advisement, denied the charge.
"I had my assistants, Al Dewey and Pam Byer, at the Field House all day," he said, "and all freshmen and sophomores should have been advised by they enrolled."
"Of course, if students had not seen an advisor at all, we sent them to an advisor in their academic field." he said. "However, they are now better prepared to help them with schedule changes."
Lewis said freshman and sophomore advising was better this year than ever
"We made two changes," he said. "Each
student had an individual conference with his advisor for 30 minutes, instead of the group advising we had in the past. Also, students were matched with advisors in their own fields of interest for the first time."
Shankel and Lewis said questionnaires asked the students' opinions of the new curriculum.
"We have heard nothing but good things about the new advising program," Stankel
suid, "and Robert Cobb (dean of the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences) and Jerry
