Two true stories–student applying to graduate school had to list on application that he had a previous misdemeanor for possession of alcohol by a minor…caused him and his family lots of stress worrying it would keep him out of the program.

Also, years ago, a friend had to appear before the State Bar Character and Fitness Board to explain a citation for contributing to the deliquency of a minor before he was permitted to sit for the Bar Exam. (He was a senior in college and some of his friends with him were underage and in possession of alcohol).

Everything worked out for both these individuals but it caused a great deal of stress and anxiety.
