3. Paragraphs 1 through 2 are incorporated herein by reference as if set forth in full
below.
4. Student is currently or was recently enrolled at Dickinson.
5. Student opened a Student Receivables Account (hereinafter "Account") with
Dickinson to pay tuition, dining service fees and other educational expenses provided and rendered
to Student by Dickinson. A true and correct copy of that Account is incorporated by reference and
attached as Exhibit "A."
6. Student, by opening the Account and using the goods and services provided by
Dickinson, agreed to pay Dickinson for all charges made to the Account.
7. Student received and accepted all goods and services provided by Dickinson and
thereby agreed to payment for said goods and services.
8. The terms ofrepayment required Student to pay all balances 14 (fourteen) days before
the beginning of each semester.
9. Student defaulted on the repayment of the Account by not paying the balance when
due.
10. Notices were forwarded to Student informing him ofhis default and right to cure such
default.
11. Student failed to cure such defaults.
12. The total amount which is immediately due and payable to Dickinson by Student on

plus late fees, costs of suit and interest from date of judgment.
COUNT II

became liable to Dickinson for said money.
15. Student was unjustly enriched by accepting said money without paying Dickinson

Hundred Fifty-three Dollars and 10/100 ($2,853.10).
17. Dickinson demanded payment of the above sums but Student failed and refused to
do so.
WHEREFORE, Plaintiff Dickinson College demands judgment against Defendant David M.
