Priority registration is not a perk for student athletes
Issue date: 1/29/08 Section: Letters to the Editor
TO THE EDITOR:
Call me optimistic, but I still harbor the sincere hope that the editorial staff of the DTH will someday actually read the Priority Registration Policy that was endorsed by the Faculty Council in December and thereafter stop making false claims about it ("Sporting their benefits," Jan. 28).
For example, the editors might be surprised to find that student athletes have not been granted priority registration as an "athletic perk" but rather are among the various student groups who are listed as examples of groups whose unusual challenges with registration could make them eligible for priority registration.
The priority registration policy is posted on the Faculty Governance Web site. Editors: Please check it out.
