Solution
Might be your wireless card then. If it can't stay connected and has low bars, it generally means your WiFi card is crappy or defective. At home you might be closer to the router than you are at school, and if your WiFi card is not very good then that might be a reason as well.

I'm not sure if all colleges do this, but for mine you need to install a 3rd party application before being allowed full access to the internet provided by the school. I have to install some Cisco application that provides an extra layer of security, it's annoying but their rules so I don't have a choice. I would suggest going to the I.T desk in your school, fastest solution if you don't want to troubleshoot it yourself, or ask your friends if they did anything special to connect to the internet.
