Re: What's with people these days?
It's like that everywhere. I know three people that got busted with x (one of them had over 90 tabs, and the other had 50-something), and nothing happened to them.
A guy I knew in high school sounds a lot like your fiance's roommate. He ended up getting caught with all that weed in his dorm, and all they did was have him go around campus picking up trash for a few hours.

Re: What's with people these days?
Typical college experience right there. Her parents will cut her off if she lives off campus wth??! Has your fiance actually talked to them seriously like "this is what I have to put up with?" Honestly if you are working and can get a job down there I would move down there for her as no matter where she goes in the dorms it will be reatarded. I'm not trying to put any age group down put from my personal experience(and having gone through it all and been that age) 18-21 year olds are THE WORST. Everything revolves around drinking or smoking or getting laid, almost nobody takes anything seriously and EVERYONE has it all figured out already, you can't tell them anything. Plus most schools just look the other way because it is easier... I was in USAF dorms though so when people did stupid stuff and it got reported there were actual conseqeuences. Out of probably 20 people on my floor I know of at least 4 who did for sure jail time for things I saw in college that got swept under the rug.
Cliffs notes: Your fiance will keep experiencing similar stuff unless she has her own room or moves out. Her parents should let her live off campus, pay for a single room or if you can move down there and rent an apt for both of you then do that. I really hope it gets better for her, my wife had to deal with this same crap when she was in college and my sister is going through similar things right now.

I have quit a few barracks horror stories to but I thought that was just in the military... obviously I was wrong.
Re: What's with people these days?
I'm glad I went to a college where that kind of crap didn't go on.
Plenty of weed(and other drugs) and drinking, but everyone was respectful about it.

I'm sorry you feel that way. However, I have to agree that I disagree with about 80 or 90 percent of the things people are doing in this/my age group. I blame the parents for spoiling there kids most of the time, sometimes for not wanting anything to do with them and just letting them be disrespectful. I have a friend who doesn't do anything wrong, he just gets to live at home and work 15 hours a week. I have to work 40 hours to live at home, he's constantly calling me to hang out like my job doesn't exist or my hours change from day to day. I'm an auto tech, so they don't.
Back on point! Did the police try to pin your lady with any of the stash? If Obama does one thing for this country besides run it down (save your views for another thread, please) I hope he makes much stiffer penalties for drug law violations. I can't even talk to a girl in several cities around mine just because everyone there smokes pot or does harder drugs and I'm not the party type.

- Every other day she walks in on her and some random guy (It's never the same one)
So basically all sorts of bad stuff. Well this weekend my fiance came back to her dorm from visiting me to find that her roommate had put a plastic bag over the smoke alarm so to not set it off so she could smoke pot in her room. She's reported all this stuff to her building manager and he's doing basically nothing.
Today though she came into her room with her RA so that her RA could show her something on the website (it was actually related to next year's housing) and what does the RA see? She see's pot all over her roommate's desk, and had a few buds stuffed in a paper towel roll with bounce sheets shoved in to keep the smell inside the tube. Her RA immediately calls the police and her and my fiance had to fill out statements. Then her roommate arrives with the cops there and they question her and she lies to tell telling her that it's just incense so they test it and sure (and obviously) it's real so the cops chew her a new one and write her a citation to show up in court and all that good stuff.
BUT that isn't what bugs me, beyond the fact that this girl should have been kicked out of school a long time ago (This is just a small sample of the crap she's pulled, she's been 'disciplined' by the school many times for various reasons) but now my fiance is being called a rat and people are talking crap about her and giving her dirty looks as if she told on her roommate or something. How is it that someone does something ridiculously stupid and gets caught and the person who LIVES with that person and had nothing to do with it catches crap from all of her peers? I just don't get people anymore.
My fiance is a freshmen by the way.
Well Aaron this a problem I never have had to deal with too much. Even the most ignorant and pathetic criminals tend to realize, that if they take from me, they will eventually find me standing over them while they sleep. The waking up part has been a traumatic experience for those individuals to say the least.
This is FACT.
Re: What's with people these days?
Update as of this morning: Her roommate was expelled.
Re: What's with people these days?
Good to hear. Hopefully this life lesson for that girl kicks her into gear to actually stop being a thief/slob/pothead and take life seriously. Probably not though, she'll just blame your fiance for everything that happened and not take any personal responsibility.
So I guess your fiance gets the room to herself for the rest of the semester? That would be great.

We think so, no word on that yet...she's suppose to have a room to herself anyway.
