Holds on my account

New Mexico State University is a ridiculously hold happy school. Let me explain. They tend to put holds on your account that stop you from registering, adding classes, or doing anything else useful whenever you owe them money, have late books, or quite often just because they feel like it. I personally manage to get a hold on my account pretty much every semester. It’s split 50/50 between me actually deserving it(owing money) and the university just randomly deciding they want me to have to call them(lonely I suppose). Well today I discovered yet another hold on my account.

Rather amazingly though, I managed to get it removed with just 2 phone calls(down from the usual 4 or 5). Is my college finally becoming responsive? Maybe too much to hope for but since I’m stuck here for another 3 years or so, I guess I have time to find out.
