Not true. The middle initial is used to make the suggested login name
of (first initial, middle initial, first 6 characters of last name).
Hopefully by September we will have a Motif version of register, and
I'm redesigning the user interface for that. We'll probably ask the
students to enter their name on one line exactly as it appears on
their ID card.
