<p>And...I've been put on probation twice, Freshman year and Sophomore
year. Middle of Freshman year for fighting, middle of Sophomore year
for accumulated concerns, no fighting, just not getting along with some
kids in the dorm. And singing too loud in the hallways. IGot my ****
together, though, and I wrote in the statements that I just learned to
be more considerate as I matured..</p>
