<p>“Just don’t assume that’s what all the other students or job applicants are doing, cuz I really highly doubt they are. It might not be “right” in the terms of what you tell your confessor, but it probably makes sense in the realm of what a public institution needs to know about you.”</p>
<p>I agree, poetgirl. For what it’s worth, out here in SoCal, most high schools in our area subscribe to the “if it’s on the record, report it, if it’s not then don’t” way of dealing with these things. One GC did make the point at one of the college nights, it is important for the student and counselor to be on the same page about this, whichever way you want to go with it. It would be worse, IMO, for one party to report it and the other not.</p>
