Southern Adventist University saw a rise in enrollment in the fall of 2000, causing cramped conditions in classes and dorms. This trend has apparently continued this spring. Southern's Records and Advisement offEce repurls that as of January 8, 2001, the current number of students who finished registration was 1,694. More than 100 students who pre-regiatered did not show up to finish registration and seven new students did not complete registration in the gym before classes started, According to Joni Zier, Director of Records and Advisement, the official totals won't be known until the week of uary 23. The 1.694 students who finished registration this year are up from the 1,511 who registered for the spring of 2000, and the 1,379 who registered in the spring of 1999. Tlie number of full-time students, those signed up for 12 hours or more, rose to 1,566. as compared to 1,411 from the spring of 2000. The number of part-time students rose to 128 as compared to 100 part-time students a year ago. The rise in registration numbers could be expected to cause full classes that can staff photographef/ Brittany Robson no longer accept the students who need major, at one of the tables helps Stefanie IMathews, freshnwn nursing See Enrollment on page 2 I, director of the Center for Learning Success,

Number 4 brings the ball up the court He throws a head fake, gets the defender off balance and cuts hard down the lane.

The center comes over to help out, but will he be in time? Number 4 streaks to the basket, leaps as high as he can, and lays the ball up. The center tries a desperate leap, times the

jump perfect, and swats the ball back in #4's face. The crowd goes wild. But wait, we hear the most dreaded

Half the players on the court are clapping and walking to the ball, and the other half are turning an offensive shade ot purple. Now that everyone has been to at least one intramural basketball game, I'm sure that you've seen at least some kind of variation on the above situation.

SA general election today BY KRISTEN SNYMAN

Today students will vote in the Student Association general election. David Warden and Brandon Nudd are running for president. Manny Bokich and Rob York are running for

executive vice president and Ben Martin is running unopposed for social vice president. On Tuesday, a press conference with the candidates was held in the cafeteria during lunch. Dennis Scliriener, director of the Service Department, was the moderator and directed student's questions to the candidates. Candidates were given one minute to respond to the questions that students had written on sheets of paper during the press confer-

When asked how tlie SA can help diftemet clubs on campus, Brandon Nudd, a presidential

candidate, said it could assist rinancially and make available more options through the Senate.

Manny Bokich, candidate for executive vice- president, when asked about his plans for next year, said ho has already considered the idea of a rock climbing wall. He also has been brain- storming on other ideas. "I'd appreciate any of your input," he remarked. Rob York, also running for executive vice, in

his commenis said, "it's ultimately more important to what they [the student body] want than what any senators want;" Ben Martin, the one and only candidate for social vice-president, was short and lo the point on his ideas for social activities for next year. "Keeping them involved and keeping them

fed," is how he summed up his goals, raising

lots of applause from the audience. When asked about how they feel about the

Elijah statue, many felt it was very important to take a student survey and see how the school Staff photographer/Brittany Robson fell as a whole on the issue. Many candidates also mentioned its need for Thursday, surrounded by his special body- Brandon Nudd made his speech before the student body on meaning and a reason the statue guard, while the other candidates wait on the platform behind him.

Federal, state aid guarantee March 31

Southern's student finance office is encouraging students to apply for financial aid by March 31. Students can apply for federal, state and institutional aid when they fill out and submit the Free -^plication for Fed- eral Student Aid (FAFSA). Marc Crundy, director of student finance, isn't labeling March 31 as a deadline, but as a guarantee.

Students can submit applications after March 31 and receive slate and federal aid. but the additional aid from Southern is not drawn from an endless well.

Southern has budgeted $5 million for scholarships, grants, discounts and waivers for the 2001-2002 school year. The requirements for this financial aid are based upon the same formula as government subsidy. Southern guarantees funds only to eligible applicants who turn in their application on time. Late applications are still accept-

('d, but awards will be distributed on a first come, first serve basis.

Awarded applicants will receive a letter notifying them of the amount they may receive the following school year.

"Keep on it until you get that award letter," Grundy said. 'That's your ticket!" Tlie letter works like a check that will be cashed when the student is officially enrolled the next term. Tlien the funds will be applied to their bill as credit, half the first semester. half the second semester. "Compared to other schools we are very ^('nerous with the time we give students to ;i|)ply," said Grundy. "It's almost unheard of lo confinue awarding institutional money into the early part of summer like Southern does, but students shouldn't press their luck by waiting too much after March 31." For those interested in picking up applications, go to Student Finance or apply on the Staff photo by Brittany Rubson web at www.fafsa.ed.gov.
