Very nice draft here, Lindsay. A few questions to help you revise: 1) Is the hyphen necessary? Why or why not? 2) Should University be capitalized? Why or why not?

Looking forward to reading the story. Have you seen a lot of credit card companies on campus?

I like this lede because you have a good start that draws you in and you let us know in the very beginning that the University is contributing to the problem.
