re: #195 lazardo

Not really. I effectively ruined any chance of me getting into a good college. After getting a GED and some community college in the States I ended up coming back here where I’m expected to get a degree that’s hardly worth the paper it’s printed on.

I shouldn’t have stood up, and this is what I get.

Aw man, that’s a really shitty story! One fight that you didn’t start ruins your future academic life? I’m very sorry to hear this. From my personal experience, even in a Quaker high school where violence is absolutely prohibited by their theology, a fight initiated by a student won’t lead to anything more than a week’s suspension. Seems like your former HS is adept at hypocrisy for teaching you that standing up for yourself is a bad idea.
