Well my schools newspaper did a story on what happened which is why my sentenced was lowered from indefinite to 2 semesters. And the majority of the school supported which is why when the case went to the county court my charges were dropped

I took online classes at the university while I lived at home and took classes at the community college just some of the credits don't transfer since class like massage therapy isn't a class most universities offer. If all my credits transferred I would only be one semester behind( that would be the semester I got suspended)

I don't have a car so I either have to live on campus or someplace that has a bus that goes to the school. There is only one place off campus that has a bus and part of my sanctions was exclusion from campus housing but I got that uplifted last month. As for the chapter housing theory, my schools Greek system is relatively new and small so they have yet to build Greek housing.
