Resident Students and Commuters should have the same Rights
Okay... I am a resident student and reside in Mojo. Recently I signed into New Dorms to study with a few of my friends from class. Now if you sign into another dorm you have to leave by 12 on a weekday. We ended up losing track of time and I signed out late. Even though it was only a few minutes I recieved and oral. Along with the oral I recieved a letter the next day stating that I am unable to sign into any other dorms for two weeks. However I have many friends who commute. They two have sometimes lost track of time and signed out late. However they do not have to wait two weeks to sign in to the dorms. I think it is ludacris that resident students get different punishments that commuters. It should all be the same. I have a reason to be on campus at 12. I live here. The commuters do not. Why should we be punished with a two week probabtion when they are not.

Wow I had no idea that residents and commuters had different rights! That's kinda weird...I wonder why that is. It's sort of like what happened during the homecoming picnic thing. Residents were free but commuters had to pay $5. I didn't go to that anyway but I think all students should have been free, and not just the residents.
I totally agree with you, you have all the rights to be there at 12 since you live there and sometimes when you study for a class you loose track of time. It is certainly unfair that you don’t get to sign in for the next two weeks and those who commute get no penalty. But I think there is a bigger problem than that. I think the real question is why the time limit is 12 for fully grown people in college?! The time frame should definitely be extended. I know from my personal experience as a Biology major and Chemistry minor that on days before the test, people from my class like to gather in a room and study late into the night, sometimes as late as 4 in the morning. The time limit hinders our ability to help each other out and in the long run lowers our score on the test.
wow. i never knew that. i am a commuter and think that everyone should be treated equally. I agree with Ilya when he said why should there be a time limit. We are adults and have the ability to decide for ourselves. I think that there should be no time frame becausing it is limiting things such as study time. At home, I study until about two when I hav a big test the next day, why shouldnt the residents be allowed to study in groups till whatever time they want?
