Phone system
may help with
registration
By Sheldon Ito

Administrators in the office of registration and records are currently studying the possibility of implementing a system which will allow students to register for classes using any touchtone telephone.
Howard Saperston, director of registration and records, said last month that his office is actively and aggressively pursuing the implementation of a telephone registration system. He said such a system would eliminate the in-person registration and drop-and-add process held in the gym.
Saperston said his office has received many complaints about the long lines and frustration caused by the current in-person process.
Michael Halloran, associate dean of admissions and financial aid, said the system is one of the long-term objectives of the upgrading process that the university's student information computer system is currently undergoing.
"I think it's an excellent idea if we can pull it off in the complex environment of the university," he said. "It certainly holds dramatic appeal."
Halloran, who is overseeing the upgrading project along with Charles Wolfkill, executive director of financial services, said the system will not be implemented until after the first phase of the upgrade is completed in the fall of 1985.
Jon Strauss, senior vice president of administration, refused to comment on plans to implement the system.
Under the system, students will be able to access the university's registration system using a touch-tone telephone. A computer voice will ask the student to punch in his identification number, and after verifying it, will give the student instructions on how to register.

Parking permit hike expected next fall
By John Kirby

Students can expect the price of parking permits to increase between 20 and 27 percent next fall, said Paula Thomas, executive director of administrative services.
The amount of this increase will be largely dependent on the administration's acceptance of a number of proposals recommended by Kenneth Servis, chairman of the university's Budget Advisory Committee.
"If w’e're looking at the rate without those recommendations, it will be about 27 percent," Thomas said.
If the recommendations are accepted, she said the increase will be closer to 22 or 20 percent.
Thomas said the major reason for the increase in parking fees is debt service, which now constitutes more than 48 percent of the expenses for parking operations.
Another factor which has led to the current situation is that the demand for parking on the Health Sciences campus was less than expected. It was thought that patient use of the cancer hospital on that campus would greatly increase the demand.
The proposal submitted to university President James Zumberge contains six specific points. The first of these is a suggestion that the four free guest passes that departments are currently allowed to issue each day be eliminated. Instead, the department would purchase a book of passes and use them as they are needed.
The second proposal calls for the inclusion of parking fees in the ticket price of events sponsored by university groups. Currently the parking for such events is free.
A fee for parking permits issued to volunteer workers has also been proposed. The fee will be paid by the department the volunteers work for.
One point of the proposal recommends charging the Associates Office, an alumni group, for the issuance of Associates permits, and another calls for the establishment of separate rates for University Park campus and Health Sciences campus.
The final recommendation is that the cost of building and renovating parking structures and the interest on existing structures be included in the new capital projects budget. These costs are currently paid directly by parking fees.
Thomas said the recommended changes would result in the generation of new income.
"We're trying to get the (parking fee) rate down as much as possible," she said.	,	...

Acquaintance rape: when friendship ends in an attack
The hows, whys of sexual assault among students

For the college freshman who was thrilled that she had been asked out by a senior, the date was a nightmare.
"We went out drinking, and I didn't know it but he had been ordering me doubles, so by the time he took me back to his dorm room, I was very, very drunk.
“At first we started kissing, and 1 wasn't worried. And then he took my top off, and 1 still wasn't real worried because I'd been with guys in situations like that before and they always stopped when I said 1 didn't want to go any further.
"Ez>erything was all right, but then all of a sudden he picked me up and put me on his bed, and that's when 1 knew 1 couldn't stop him. ... I cried and told him to stop, but he just wouldn't listen. He was like, ‘Great! This girl's a virgin. I’m gonna get one more trophy. ' He was very much loving the fact that he was in control of me.
"I just cried. 1 was miserable. It hurt. . . . All I could say was, 'This is what you get for letting him take half your clothes off.’. . .
“I was a virgin, and that was my first experience with sexual inter-
course. What a way to be introduced to it."
It has been almost six years since that night when the football player invited the 18-year-old freshman to his room at a Midwestern college and forced her to have sexual intercourse with him three times.
But to the woman, now a
graduate student at this university, the ordeal was not over when she finally made her way back to her own dormitory the next morning.
"7 know he told all his friends, because they always looked at me and laughed.
"It um living hell. I thought I (Continued on page 13)
