He has good grades and has cleared the entrance exams and interviews. One day he receives an email from the university saying that he will not receive admission to the school due to the university s zero-tolerance policy on bullying. Prateek is surprised as he has not bullied anyone since he got into high school. He decides to go to the admissions counsellor to find out the exact reason for the rejection of his application. The admissions counsellor shows him an objectionable and abusive writeup he had posted around 6 years ago about a classmate. The university had seen this online and reconsidered Prateek s application in a new light. Lesson 3: How Long is Forever? 02
