inquiry about registration process at small colleges

[Tatiana Osipovich]

Dear All:

Our College (fewer than 2,000 undergraduate students) is exploring the 
possibility of moving to full online registration during the summer for 
all incoming first-year students.  Currently, incoming students register 
for only two courses during the summer and then add two more courses 
during New Students Orientation, during which the Russian Program 
conducts recruitment.  I am concerned that if class registration for all 
incoming students takes place before students arrive on campus, 
enrollment in Russian-language classes will decrease.

I would really appreciate it if Russian instructors at small colleges 
would share with me their thoughts and experiences in regard to the 
issue I describe above.
