When my baby sister is ready for college (if she still wants to attend, which I don’t agree with at all), I will definitely get her a place off-campus, and relocate with her. College is no place to be without a chaperone.

As for this woman who is distressed about her son’s room assignment, she is paying tuition I assume? Don’t patronize an establishment devoted to exposing young people to depravity. If he’s got his heart set on it, go there and tell them they’re not getting your money unless he gets his room assignment changed, or get him an apartment.

Money talks.

Maybe the straight guy should invite his skinhead study group to hang out with him in his room.

Better yet, sublet the room to a pimp and rent another place.

She had new roomates this year whom she liked and they are all renting an apartment next semester. Your son went through what my niece went through. She was ready to transfer to another school.

Miss Triple Combination got herself a DUI, but from what I understand she still has her athletic scholarship, which she lost at one point, since she didn’t show up to soccer practice (which is really the only important thing, I guess, as far as the university is concerned). Gotta cater to those atheletes.

She’s studying to be an elementary school teacher. Isn’t that nice?

The RA was a wimp. He did nothing to help the situation except spout the usual nonsense of “trying to get along and working things out.”

Which just goes to show that we haven’t lived in a truly free society for decades, freedom of association was thrown out like so much garbage decades ago. It’s not been acknowledged for years that whether or not it’s right to not want to associate with particular groups, should have no bearing on the freedom to not do so. Unless it’s Christians-it’s practically etched in marble now that no one has to “tolerate” their society if they show the tiniest hint of their faith in practice, as Christianity and not under some “brother hood of man” new age umbrella.

He sounds like a wimp. I had an advantage as being significantly older (6 years) and had very recently been in the regular army. The twerps were no match for me. The good kids, defined by being respectful of their peers, were priceless.

You should have just done what I did in that situation: Every time my roommate got “into it,” I’d fidget in my bed, stretch, yawn, snore, whatever.. she’d make him stop. Repeat until blueballs. This was especially disgusting because they were both ugly as sin.

IMO if he wanted his choice of roommate, he should have arranged for it in advance (they do let you do that). Otherwise, it’s always a roll of the dice. I think the school is right to insist on a more substantial cause for switching (see above, LOL).

She didn't care. Not to be cocky, but I'm not bad on the eyes(I've never said that in all my posts on FR, but since you brought up the looks, I can't resist). I think she was trying to turn me on to lure me into having sex with her.... (disgusting.. and she KNEW I was and am a Christian, and had a beautiful gf, she was just a whore). Some whores (both men and women) have no shame.
