Class permit cards will be issued by the department chairman or his designate and must be signed by advisor and department chairman ONLY. 5. When students have completed the drop—add process and secured their new class permit cards they will return to the Registrar’s Office where all cards will be checked for COM PLETENESS and AC CURACY, and stamped. The Registrar will retain the complete drop—add card. 6. Advisors MUST collect class permit cards for courses dropped regardless of department. These cards will be HANDED by Advisors to their OWN department chairmen as soon as possible after they are collected. 7. One department chairman (or designate) will inform, via phone, another department chairman that he is holding “dropped” class permit cards for the respective department and the courses to which the cards pertain. Then the chairmen will send the cards to the department to which they belong. This system, if con scientiously adhered to, should allow all department chairmen to keep up with the numbers of students enrolling in various classes and should allow them to make timely decisions as to when to open or close a class. This system should also alleviate the problem caused by over production of class cards.'
