The next large step, according to Associate Registrar Lora Spaulding, will be the introduction of the Renovare database software currently under development for the University by SCT Corporation. The introduc­ tion of the software is tenta· tively scheduled for 18 months from now, Spaulding said. Renovare will form a central database to be used for purposes of financial aid, administration, human resources and methods of interaction between students and the University. Spaulding said her office has looked at various ways to improve and electronicize "workflow," the process by which information, whether print or electronic, is moved between campus offices. The registrar's office concluded that there was no effective way to computerize the sys­ tem to complete improve· ments before installation of the Renovare system. In the meantime, specific processes have been examined for ways that they could be stream­ lined. "The forms which students find take most time are aca­ demic program forms, such as those used to add or drop a major, and exemption forms which students must get filled out if they do not have the ordinary require­ ments for a class," Spaulding said. Those students most prone to use exemption forms are transfer students and those from Saint Mary's taking Notre Dame courses. In many cases, lrishlink will not rec­ ognize the courses that these students already have on their record as sufficient for the requirements. Generally, processes that only require approval from one person - such as approval for overload - are those that the Registrar's Office has successfully streamlined. Pro.cesses that require input from more than one person typically remain un-computerized and likely appear to remain so for at least 18 months, Spaulding said.

Throughout its Nov.·5 also with the entire student body and involves plays off the field as well as on the field. Cheering, doing the jig, eating hot dogs and having fun are just as, if not more, important than the outcome of the game. EDITORIAL CARTOON A foundation of excellence is laid when everyone does their best, not just the players but the rest of the student body as well. The band has a standard that we always play as loud and as well as we can, and likewise it is also expected that the students cheer as loud as they can. It is important to celebrate when our team succeeds but it is just as important to give our team support when they need us. As students, we are the foundation for the University and the foundation for the football team, and we must be able to raise our team's spirits when they struggle, in the same way that they raise ours when they succeed. As the game drew to a close last Saturday, cheering loudly would have indeed been inappropriate, for that was the moment of Florida State's victory. However, when the band takes the field to play the renowned Victory March and beloved Alma Mater and the players face the students, the outcome of the game is forgotten, and we remember that we are all part of the Notre Dame family. The raising of the golden helmets is not to signify a win or even an excellent performance but to remind us, just as Our Lady on the Golden Dome does, that we are united in spirit as one student body. The suggestion of "strictly clapping" is for fans whose school spirit depends solely on outcomes. The kind of unfeeling and impersonal attitude you described is what really lacks meaning. It is that atti­ tude and not the cheering you witnessed·Saturday that lowers our standard for excellence.
