re: How many OTers had the pleasure of registering for classes at LSU with Reggie?

Yep and also calling Reggie to get my grades at the end of the semester. I remember that computer voice well....

'English one thousand two.........B as in bravo'
'Algebra eleven o two.........C as in charlie'

Yep. "English 1002 for 3 credit hours, Monday, Wednesday, Friday 830 to 930 is...........full. Please enter your request."

I had to do this my last semester. Don't really remember if bad or good. Got my classes evidently.

I remember waiting til...was it midnight? and you kept hitting redial and redial and redial...

I would do it over at my parent's house, where they had two separate lines. My Dad had a business line for his home office and I usually got through on that one first. And being an upperclassman REALLY helped out when doing this as well, as previously mentioned.

I was talking about reggie, not too long ago......random.

38-tiger

ETA: didnt have to dial 38 on campus.

It was still an option when I got there in 02, but they were moving to online registration which also sucked balls.

My first semester at LSU was Spring 01. I think that was the only time I used reggie. It was not fun and I always wondered how they registered before reggie, but I see someone said they had to go to the field house and wait, I am sure that sucked more than reggie.

I remember the first time I had an instructor post class notes on PAWS. For some reason I want to say that particular semester I had several classes in which the notes were posted for us, then after that it seemed like you had to get lucky to get into a class where the instructor posted the notes.

I was just talking about Reggie to the young kids at work the other day

I never used it though. We had the option of that or the computer.

In. My last semester I register for a 6 hour internship. When I went to the professor that was in charge of internships he told me 6 hour internships weren't allowed. I told him Reggie let me register. Nothing was ever said and I got credit for 6 hours.

I was a sophomore English major. Reggie signed me up for Nuclear Science 8000. And then he told me "this class is not compatible with your major." Well no shite! Of course I was furiously trying to get out of it. Eventually Reggie told me "You have dropped Nuclear Science 8000 because you have no pre-requisites" or some garbage. Good times.
