A college student who most likely pays their own way, works for a living, and wasn't born with well heeled parents to pay for their 4 year day camp "college experience".
Jack isn't at this party because he doesn't have the luxury of having rich parents to pay for his apartment. He is a commuter student and has work in the morning before class.

Someone who lives at home and commutes to college. This is a great option for people who want all the responsibilities but none of the fun of college. Many commuter students develop problems such as depression, anxiety, substance abuse, overdependence on their parents, failure to develop social and life skills, and other mental health problems.
Being a commuter student is so depressing. I feel like I'm still in high school, but I have all the responsibilities of college.

Pussies who don't stay at school for any number of reasons. They will never fully appreciate the college experiance.
Commuter students are pussies.
