I go to a small college, about 1400 people. Recently, I noticed a damage charge on my financial statement for last semester's payment. I never recieved an email, letter, or any notification. I asked others who lived in my dorm, and they all found they had the same charge. When I emailed residence life, they told me that it was a charge for damage done to the walls in the building (i.e. drunk guys punching holes in the wall) and the broken front door. General damage, not just any particular room.
They supposedly billed everyone in the dorm, which would total to $11,000, for damage that the majority of people living there did not impose. Also, no one recieved any documentation or notification. They just put the charge on our bills, hoping no one would notice. Furthermore, they took the money out of our housing deposits, leaving us in debt AND possibly without housing.
I'm wondering if anyone thinks I should persue this further, and if so, how? I really appreciate your help.

I've made it through the first round interview for a daycare "lead teacher" or "teaching assistant" position at a private school. My second interview will be within a few days. I have never been in a "round two" situation before, so I would like to have some ideas on what to possibly expect.

Thanks in advance!

I can either go to college now in my home town or take a year off and move to a much bigger city. I'm very tempted to take the year off, but I'm afraid that if I do I'll end up not going period. So, any experiences you would like to share are appreciated....thanks!

I might have asked this question to a narrower audience, but I am too lazy to search such a forum. I apologise to all those for whom this message is a bother.

I know a 12 standard (grade) student studying in Chennai, India. The question he has is - Must he have the science and mathematics in his 12th, if he wants to do a graduate degree in Science in India. (B Sc. Physics, or Bsc. Maths.)

Second Question -
Are Science and Maths required if he wants to join the Indian Airforce?

(Again, I apologise to the majority to whom this question might be irrelevant. Maybe you can tell me if this is possible in your country / university.)

I go to college and I was talking to one of my instructors about something that was missing in my file and at the end of the conversation she said something to the effect of: "You're a prize, Sarah." I can't remeber exactly how she said it. It was either that or: "You're a little prize."
Either way, what does that mean?
Is that supposed to be praise or what?

Hi, i have always been better at english than math. I am a very good speller but math and reading comprehension is tough for me. I have noticed that alot of people are good at math but can't do english or spell very well...is there any connection here? Does this mean my "logic" skills are weaker since math is based on logic? Any advise would be appreciated.

Well, though I am a conscientious student, my gardes aren't where they should be. I had a 93 average in freshman year and only an 87 average this past sophomore year. I will try to aim higher next year and get a 98 average. I got a 3 on my ap world history exam. scored an 85 percentile on the PSAT ( Ill do better next year!). Im the leader of my school band, have worked in a printing company and a dentist's office. National Honor Society. Arista, was in the Borough wide band, National Vocabulary Championship participant, volunteered at a hospital and senior citizen center.

Im hoping to get into Stanford, which is my dream school, and I know its aiming pretty high considering my terrible grades and minimal extra curricular activities. whats the best college do you think I can get into if I improve in junior year. is it too late?! ohmy. and what can I do to up my chances at getting into a prestigious college? thank you!

If you have taken the GMAT multiple times, will schools go by your highest score or will they average your scores?
