He doesn't wanted to attend the university because of his worries to get bullied. "The guy with a burned face", that's how he was labeled prior to college, and that might what he will be called as well. His mindset is he got used to bullying to be strong enough to face the mean outside world.

On his first class on the first day of school, his professor noticed his face and asked what happened to his face which had his classmates looking at him except for the "good classmate" who didn't look at his face to lessen his feeling of awkwardness. The "good classmate" responded to the teacher to just start with the class instead of drawing attention to one student.

In the canteen, they're all looking at him. Again, many of them asking what happened to his face. The "good classmate" came and told them, "apparently, you know what happened to his face. Why are you still asking? Just be the kind of person to treat him as human like you."

He began to live normally in school after that incident. However, there are times when freshmen came to the university and ask him what happened to his face, but his batchmate say the same thing as the "good classmate" told them. Time came for the graduation, he was looking for his "good classmate". He asked the teacher and told him he's currently in the hospital battling for his life against cancer. After the graduation program, he came to visit his "good classmate" and gave him his medal. It's a dedication for his kindness as not because of him, he might've left college early.
