<p>So I got my first detention in high school today for going to the bathroom and not coming back to class for like 40 minutes.</p>
<p>the reason being is (don't laugh) I had a huge diarrhea and I just could not return to school and my teacher marked me as truant and gave me a detention.</p>
<p>Do I have to include this in my college application, and if I do, will I be given a chance to explain my dire predicament in that particular situation?</p>
<p>Dang man, take it easy! No, nobody cares about a detention. On college apps they only care about major things… atleast a suspension.</p>
<p>Lol, people make mistakes. People get detentions. I got a detention for forgetting to get my planner signed after the weekend (school rule). I doubt it will stop me from getting into college. Relax! :)</p>
<p>Thanks y’all. I mean it’s freakin diarrhea after all</p>
<p>Sorry, but your chances of being accepted into any top tier university are now basically zero.</p>
<p>I’m surprised they didn’t believe you had diarrhea. Next time snap a photo.</p>
<p>top tier? i dont even think you can get into community college now that you got a detention.</p>
<p>You should run over to the VP’s office, dump yourself and your knees and apologize over and over. Hurry don’t flush your academic career down the drain.</p>
<p>This kid is panicking that his bowel movements will impede his chances at getting into college. This is such typical CC material it’s unbelievable.</p>
<p>This is College Confidential after all… you ask questions that you probably wouldn’t ask on facebook or some other social media websites. Where would I inquire about diarrheal-related detention predicament other than college confidential? This is the facebook for desperate, college-hungry students. 12xp12, if you have problem with my bowel movement, I will personally poop all over your face.</p>
