If it was charged as trespassing, not something higher like burglary, then the level of his trespass was probably the lowest misdemeanor. Usually trespass is a sliding scale starting with a warning not to return. Being that it was on a campus, they can sometimes use that as an aggravating factor.

One of the few cases that got reversed for a constitutionally exceptional sentence.
