Oh man, thnx for sharing. Yeah, some institutions, if they want to be wicked can certainly release the hounds on people.

When I moved out of my first apartment in SF, I didn’t pay the full last months utility bill, and that knocked my credit score from 780 to like 730. Any lower, and it woulda been dicey.

“And many colleges won’t give you your diploma if you have unpaid library fines or parking tickets!” Oh, how right you are, Mrs. Micah! Some colleges will revoke your financial aid, in fact, over un-returned library books. I saw this happen – to my brother. The truth is that he never finished his degree after that, even though he was only a few credits short. I love my brother dearly and it’s heartbreaking to see how one little thing like that ballooned out of control.

And now it’s been more than a decade since he started college, so his credits have all expired, as far as I know. If he does ever decide to go back to school, he’ll be starting from scratch. :-\
