I'm on my last warning and i'm a bit worried that I'd get an RIAA notice. I googled for anyone getting sued from private trackers, but I've yet to find one. Does anyone know if anyone has been sued so far through a private tracker?

The university
Sod the RIAA, do you wanna get done by your uni?
You'll end up with no internet if you keep going.
I would be more concerned with my education, than downloading. what are the warnings for? what are the consequences?
I got warnings from the BSA and MPAA
Compaired to the number of Cease and Desist Notices the riaa/mpaa sends out, being sued is rare. But it does happen, even on private sites.
Because of the shear number of people involved, every one being a potential nark, it is bound to happen.
Torrents are not very safe. It maybe in you best intrest to try other things with less risk.

I was warned 5 years ago by mpaa them days i was just learning and only new about public trackers since then i have changed to private and not herd a thing
in ur situation its probably best to sign up for a newsgroup service
if u really dont want to pay for that, and want to risk ur education, then quit using public trackers.
use private trackers, smaller user-base the better.
and run peerguardian2, always. never download a single torrent without it.
even doing that, ur still taking a risk.
