In college, we had a two-week stretch at the beginning of a new semester when you could audition classes and add/drop them at will. This was called the "shopping period", so in my view, the shopping cart analogy on the registrar's web site doesn't sound too out of place here. Of course, the logic behind it would need to be different from an off-the-shelf e-commerce cart.
