Currently, students are required to enroll at the enrollment center at assigned enrollment times. With distributed enrollment, each student will be given a start time. The student then can enroll at any time after his or her start time at a campus computer or a personal computer.

allow students greater flexibility when enrolling.
"Computers should be available to students from 7 a.m. to 11 p.m," Morrell said. "There will be some Saturday and Sunday times, too."
Students also will have the option of dropping and adding classes as soon as they have enrolled.
for the official add/drop period, but in the future they will be able to add and drop classes any time after their start times."
"I'd like for students to be able to change their schedules as often as they change their minds," Morrell said. "Right now, they have to wait
Morrell said a possible drawback to the system was security.
"Conceivably, a student could change another student's schedule," he said. "To combat this, all students will enter personal access codes that they select. As a result, I think the risk will be very small."
The University's system was modeled after the enrollment system at the University of Iowa.
Jerald Dallam, university registrar at Iowa, said security had not presented a problem since the system was started in 1990.
"Unless students give out their personal codes, security is not a problem," Dallam said. "Then it is the student's problem for giving him his or
her security."
Dallam said the greatest advantage of the system had been the elimination of enrollment lines.
"Students no longer have to miss classes to make their enrollment times," he said. "Students can enroll at 22 centers across campus. They can enroll when they are at home, and they even can enroll from abroad with a modem."
Jon Kenton, Lansing,junior, said he was excited at the prospect of distributed enrollment. Last semester, Kenton attended a demonstration that allowed students and faculty to view prototype computer screens of the enrollment process.
"It was still in its preliminary stages, but it looked to be pretty impressive," Kenton said. "It's simple to use. If you have any type of computer literacy, you should be all set."
TRAFFIC: County seeks alternatives

the next decade, he said.
"It's going to build up to a point where it doesn't work well," he said. "The light may turn green, but you're not going anywhere."
Much of the traffic comes from residents on the west side of the city who drive to the Kansas City area for work every day, he said. Because the KU campus sits in the middle of Lawrence and is closed to through traffic during the day, Sixth and 23rd streets are the only way to move east and west, he said.
The city's problem becomes the county's problem when drivers tired of 23rd Street's traffic try to find alternate routes, Pasley said. He said they sought side streets for short cuts, adding to the traffic on smaller streets and increasing traffic hazards near area schools.
The proposed eastern routes for the trafficway include 31st Street, 35th Street and a route south of the Wakarusa River. Although the county has not made a decision yet on the eastern half, it probably won't go south of the Wakarusa — pending
"We have to have a trafficway of some form," McElhaney said. "Not only do we need it now, but the need is increasing."
But Lena Johnson, representative for the Alliance for Environmental Justice, said the trafficway would encourage development that would slow its ability to move traffic. She said the 45-mph speed limit and the road's size would encourage business to move in beside it.
"What you're going to be getting is a second 23rd Street," Johnson said. "I don't see that it's going to make it any better."
Johnson said her group was planning an anti-trafficyway protest at
Louie McElhaney, the senior member of the Douglas County Commission, was not on the commission when the proposal was first looked at in the mid-1980s. But he said a county-wide vote four years ago supporting the trafficway showed it was needed and wanted by residents.

another environmental study and input from Haskell students, Pasley said. He said traffic studies by the Kansas Department of Transportation showed that nobody would use that route as an alternate.
