Record enrollment closes courses

Although every student who participated in main enrollment for the spring semester received a complete schedule, students who still must enroll in January may not get into the classes they need, KU officials said recently.
Freshmen and sophomores probably will face many closed classes when they go to the enrollment center in the east wing of Strong Hall, the officials said this week.
The officials blamed anticipated problems on this semester's record enrollment. In addition, the state's fiscal problems and a planned 2.3 percent increase in academic programs may exacerbate the problem.
"It is going to be difficult to help those students," Garv Thompson, director of student records, said.
yesterday. "Enrollment is like a store going out of business. The later you shop, the less there is left on the shelf."
Robert Lineberry, dean of liberal arts and sciences, said classes filled much earlier this year than in past years because of the increased number of students enrolled at the University.
"There aren't anymore slots in key areas," Lineberry said.
About 250 courses were full at the end or main enrollment last week, including primary courses such as SPAN 104 and 105, GERM 104, ECON 104 and JOUR 240.
Lineberry said space also was tight in upper-level courses.
Additionally, KU officials Tuesday announced that proposed state budget cuts had forced the University to cut about $200,000 worth of spring
semester classes, or about 100 sections.
Robert Cobb, executive vice chancellor, said students whose spring semester classes might be affected by the cuts would be notified by the University before Jan. 1.
Even without the loss of 100 classes, students who enrolled last month for the spring semester experienced problems.
About 1,300 students participated in a "completion enrollment" Nov. 25 because they didn't receive full schedules on their first trip to the enrollment center.
The students stood in a line that at times went as far back as the Strong Hall rotunda and the office of student records, in Strong's west wing.
Bush says mistakes from Iran arms deal damaged credibility
United Press International
WASHINGTON — Vice President George Bush, breaking a monthlong silence, said yesterday that the administration's credibility had been damaged by mistakes in carrying out a covert arms deal with Iran.
But he supported President Reagan's decision to open the door to "moderate" elements in the revolutions of the National Security Council, Bush reiterated Reagan's explanation that the United States was trying to approach moderate elements in Iran who might succeed the Aatylodil Ruhollah Khomeini.
Praising Reagan for taking fast action to investigate the spreading scandal, Bush predicted, "As the various investigations proceed, I

The team must be off the court just inside the 10-minute mark on the clock during pre-game, or it's bad luck.
"Pre-game — that's a law," said Danny Manning, forward.
But then, some of the players also have superstitions, making Brown's abundance not so unusual.
"I can understand coach having them," said Kevin Pritchard, guard. "I always take a nap before a game. I'll try to make the last shot when we're leaving the floor during pre-game."
Manning said being the last player to go on the court in pregame warm-up had become a superstition for him. But, wearing his sweats even when his teammates shed theirs isn't.

"A lot of coaches have superstitions," Perelman said. "Some more than others. They get into a routine that they think is somehow directly related to a win. If it works, they stick with it."
Brown's superstitions are excused by friends as belonging to the stereotypical coach.

Superstitions or not, Brown believes that the power is with him to win.
"I don't know," he said in an attempt to comprehend his beliefs. "Maybe I'm just looking for every little edge."
"There's a certain amount of luck involved. A lot maybe isn't superstitious." Freidinger said.
