"WAIT" LISTS and CRASHERS

While some of the courses listed above have "Wait" lists, all of the courses have

significantly large enrollment.  IMPORTANT:  If you do not wish to be dropped from the

official roster or passed over for consideration on a "Wait" list or "Add" list, you must,

must, MUST show up on time and remain in class for each class period of the first week.

Absence during the first week will result in your removal from the course, without

reconsideration or reversal, in order to make room for others.  Add codes will be given

out the first class period of Week 2, with priority to Wait Listed students, and then to

crashers.  Crashers and Wait List-ers who do not remain for the class time will forfeit

their consideration for the class.
