   Cable?  You must have a different kind of dorm.  I don't recall that
   option when I lived there.  Not having been an RA, I can't say exactly
   what they're required to watch out for, but I do recall one who nearly
   had a nervous breakdown keeping an eye on the fifteen-year-old on her
   floor.

This is slightly off the topic, but the final clause of the above
paragraph really makes me wonder...

Theoretically, by the time a person is in college, they should be
old enough to decide much for themselves - after all, they're
shaping the course of their lives with the decisions that they make
about what classes to take, and how to spend their time...

So why should one college student be "singled out," if you will,
and looked after any more than the rest, who are, supposedly just
as mature?

sure wouldn't want to go to that school!  fascism just doesn't do it
for me...

I just got up - i'm not even sure if i'm speaking for myself...
