Try the graph gear 1000. It's made of metal with a retractable tip and feels great on the hand. its $10.06 at Amazon with prime. Probably the best pencil on the market for the price.
It's a powerful pen. I think you can order them off amazon? I bought it a while ago though and can't recall if I bought it through them
The price has been marked up a bit, https://www.amazon.ca/Pentel-Mechanical-Drafting-Pencil-PG1015/dp/B0013NHU7O/ref=redir_mobile_desktop?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1&ref_=ya_aw_od_pi
Also, this pencil took some time to ship. 1 day before the final delivery date.
I agree.
I spent ~70$ freshmen year on 5 mechanical pencils. Going into my final semester and they're still doing work.
I'd reccomnd these two:
http://www.amazon.com/Pentel-Graphgear-1000-0-5mm-PG1015/dp/B0013NHU7O/ref=sr_1_1?s=office-products&ie=UTF8&qid=1417900102&sr=1-1&keywords=pentel+graphgear+1000

Costs about $20?
It's on Canadian Amazon for ~$9 Canadian pesos
A knife isn't allowed, but a couple of these https://www.amazon.com/Pentel-Graph-Gear-0-5mm-PG1015/dp/B0013NHU7O/ref=sr_1_5?ie=UTF8&qid=1511989836&sr=8-5&keywords=graphgear+1000
are probably equally effective for defense, and handy for using on exams or in class.
Joking aside, make an appointment with the dean of students office, and ask for advice. They might be able to speed up the process.
There's the [Staedtler 925 25] (https://www.amazon.co.uk/Silver-drafting-mechanical-925-25-05/dp/B002BNHMC8/ref=sr_1_1?s=officeproduct&ie=UTF8&qid=1469699537&sr=1-1&keywords=staedtler+925) it's also available in night blue. Of course there's also the [Pentel Graphgear 1000] (https://www.amazon.co.uk/Pentel-Graphgear-1000-Drafting-Pencil/dp/B0013NHU7O/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1469699767&sr=8-1&keywords=pentel+graphgear+1000). It has a retractable tip so that helps protect it.
Thanks for detailed response I really appreciate it. Seems like it's between the staedtler 925 and the Graph Gear 1000 with the Roulette Grip. There seems to be a couple versions of the Staedtler with the 925 25-05 and 925 35-05 being twice the price of the one I linked. Is there difference substantial and I hate to bother you again but of the ones I linked which one would you think is best for long writing for a long time? Thanks again for all the help.

Well you can always check for local calligraphy classes.
Additionally, if you're a student, your school may offer Calligraphy or Typography courses you can check out.
If neither of these appeal or apply, you can always check out some books on Amazon. Some good ones under $20:
