Registrar Cockblocks Schedulizer
Wednesday, August 27th, 2008
The Registrar’s office has apparently made it impossible for Schedulizer to function, or something.When you log in to the Schedge, the entreating missive at left comes up and explains that “Cornell has made it prohibitively difficult for us to maintain accurate course information.” And even though the good peeps over at Schedulizer (holla back, Ross) have tried their darndest to work with the Registrar to resolve this timely and adequately, “the Registrar has been unresponsive.” The Registrar so tied up in its own red tape that any soul brave enough to venture into cubicle-y abyss comes out with empty answers and the nagging desire to set Day Hall on fire? Unheard of. It seems this whole shebang is due to the switch to the decidedly sucky PeopleSoft, which (not unlike many a beer goggled hook-up) appears pretty and wholesome and kinda cute but in reality sucks giant monkey balls.
This makes times quite trying for we students who did not write down our schedules before 1:30am the night before the first day of classes. And since some unnamed students did not get all the classes they wanted and a bag of potato chips in PreEnroll, some unnamed students are kinda pissed off. And so this colors their decision to send what would normally be a very peaceable and professional email to the evil-sounding UnivRegistrar@cornell.edu. After the jump, the offending email.
