Record enrollment closes courses
By AUSON YOUNG
Staff writer
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 cut in KU's budget for academic programs may exacerbate the problem.
"It's going to be difficult to help those students," Gary Thompson, director of student records, said.
yesterday. "Enrollment is like a store out of business. The later you shop, the less there is left."
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 of 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.

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 Aatollah Ruhullah Khomeini.
Praising Reagan for taking fast action to investigate the spreading scandal, Bush predicted. "As the various investigations proceed, I
