<p>Hi thumper… I didn’t do anything. I also agree that students should not go against school policy, but my argument is more philosophical.</p>
<p>My argument is this: Times change, and more than ever, now future employers and graduate schools look at everything about the student. Because of that, not only students need to be careful, but schools should be more careful as well.</p>
<p>I gave the Credit Bureau example. I am not saying that consumers should have a free pass that allow them to not pay bills. What I am saying is that a late payment cannot be associated with a Credit Score of -1 or with some hypothetical record that says “do not trust this consumer”.</p>
<p>Again, the world is changing, and institutions need to adapt. I will give you another example. Nowadays, Google is being sued because of its search results (Google it, you’ll find it 
). When the Internet started, few companies depended on Internet Search results to conduct their business and I think that no one would sue a Search Website because of these results. Now that being on top of the Google Search pages become so important, Google needs to be very careful that the search results they dispense is fair and warranted, because the outcome of those searches may impact future business performance of other companies.</p>
