The 5 pounds makes more sense. But now I have also read that college students are gaining every year, not just in the freshman - so maybe the total will be 15.

I did the freshman 5, and then the sophmore 15, and the junior 15... I finally took it back off my senior year by learning how to eat right, but buffet-style eating 7 days a week is dangerous!
