First Day of Registration - UPDATE

I didn't end up sleeping at all last night because I was too anxious/excited to sleep.

All the hard work paid off because today went so smoothly. Compared to years past, everyone was so impressed with how few problems occurred. No servers went down (although they were slow around 9:30 when EVERYONE was on our site), no one was charged multiple times, and we had very few angry phone calls (although we did have a few).

All in all, it was a success. As of now, there are over 2,500 freshmen who are complete and paid through the process. There are over 2,700 (including the ones before) who are in some stage of the process. When you think about our maximum number of almost 6,000, that is a tremendous amount of freshmen in one day. Its not completely off base from years past, it just blows me away how many people are so excited to go to Fish Camp even with the economy in its current state. This, however, is not a political blog.

For now, I'm going to sleep. I took a 4 hour nap earlier (since I didn't sleep last night), but that just won't cut it for the whole night.

Keep on keeping on.
