Wow, that makes no sense. I wonder what you'd have to pay if you lost it.

Protip: Go to the on-campus lawyers. From what I hear, they're super pro at fixing the retarded fines/penalties the university imposes on you for stupid reasons.

Ombuds office in 2nd floor of MUSC is what I presume he is reffering to, though they are not lawyers by any means. Here: http://www.mcmaster.ca/ombuds/

Good one, Desda. Run along and go back to blogging about your crush, now.



On topic: Are you serious about the Ombuds office? Is this the type of thing they might normally address?

"What kind of disputes does the Ombuds handle?

An Ombuds is available to handle university related complaints and concerns, especially those that have not been adequately addressed through the usual channels. Students might visit the Ombuds Office with academic or non-academic problems including:

...
Non-academic:

registration
fees/finacial
parking
fines and refunds
codes of conduct
residence
student employment on campus
clubs/associations

..."

Awesomeee! Go see them!
