Today, CSUN hit an all-time low. I've been subjected to absolute shit before, but this was something that was completely unprecedented in my college career.
Last year before summer break, I received a notice about a Hepatitis B vaccination that I will need in order to attend CSUN in the fall. I spoke with the nurse and she was particularly nasty about the fact that she was in a position to have me disenrolled if I did not comply (making it the third time I was almost kicked out of school during my freshman year for any reason but GPA). So, I embarked on the 5 month long journey of the Hepatitis B vaccination series. The first two shots were not a problem. I was 18 and the state of California paid for the juice injected in my bloodstream. But the third shot is where our story really begins; the third shot of the series which was, quite literally, slammed into my arm after I had turned 19.
Apparently, after 18, it's believed that you should have to cough up 35 dollars to cover the vaccine. FINE. I paid for my dead Hep B. Then it happened. The nurse had me roll up my sleeve and stabbed me. I almost shrieked. This was a different kind of "sting". This was unlike the first two. And I felt the juice worming into my vein. She pulled it out and slapped a Looney Tunes band-aid on and looked at me with a smile on her face and Satan in her eyes.
"Well?" she asks.
"Uhh... This one hurt a lot more than the first two..."
"Of course it did! Now you're 19! So, we double the dose... No one expects the pain, but I sure don't tell them! Not before the shot, no sir. Have some junk food, you deserve it," she says as she hands me a bowl of candy. I was not a trick-or-treater. And I was not amused... Because today, CSUN made me pay for torture. CSUN threatened me with disenrollment. CSUN charged me 35 dollars for a vaccination I will probably never use because everyone else is already immune.

Hahaha, i'm sorry it is probably rude of me to laugh but I cannot help myself because CSUN made me unhappy for 4 years, Everything and anything they do will make you mad. I was so dissatisifed with my 4 years at CSUN that i wish i would of hung myself when i had the chance. You think 35 bucks for a shot is luney, they make you pay for everything and besides parking is such the bullshit , it's the biggest drag. I have deep empathy for your situation sorry you had to deal with the Satanic Nurse. Lol
Screw CSUN!!!

Wow Nar, I don't remember having to get more vaccinations at CSULA, other than the inital ones. Maybe that was their attrition method.
Hey on slightly similar note, wait till you find out how much they're going to milk you just to let you graduate and LEAVE CSUN! :(
