Outrageous. A simple fist fight was enough to get students expelled at my Catholic HS. What these students did is criminal level vandalism/destruction of property. Expulsion should be just the beginning of their consequences!

Sounds like some heads need to roll among the faculty/ administrators/ chaperones as well. Ultimately the HOS is responsible

Who knows whether what PP claims is even true or just trying to make Gonzaga look bad.

If my home was destroyed, I would not be content with the "meaningful conversations" mentioned in the article.

Dozens of students from Washington’s prestigious Gonzaga College High School, on a spiritual retreat in southern Maryland, ransacked a cabin and an unoccupied home, shattering windows and cabinets, punching holes in walls, throwing a toilet into a yard and destroying property throughout both dwellings, according to several Gonzaga employees who were told of the incidents at a staff meeting at the school.

A number of the students pulled a refrigerator from the cabin and pushed it over a cliff into the Potomac River, which runs along the property, the employees said.

The acts took place during afternoon breaks at the retreat on two consecutive days, Jan. 30 and 31. Approximately 40 to 50 students, mostly juniors but some seniors, took part in the vandalism, according to the employees, who spoke on the condition of anonymity because they feared retribution.

What kind of retreat was this? Where the hell were the chaperones? Not only should kids be expelled, but staff should be fired. 40-50 kids? That’s not a few bad apples. That’s a school culture gone to hell.

I’m so glad this junior class will be gone by the time my 7th grade gets to G — hopefully long before.

This is not normal human behavior. What were they on?

Well OP started the whole thing claiming racism.

LOLLL. My brother is a Gonzaga alumni and this is spot-on for him and most of his friends.

I am PP and I haven't heard anything. I have no idea what is isn't happening. But the way the earlier person put things gave me some pause (beyond this is anonymous so you never know) about the claims being made.

So you think the heart of this incident is about the boys in this specific junior class and doesn’t have anything to do with a culture in the school in which something like this occurred. Got it.

What “claims” are you questioning? If it’s about the incredible damage they did, go read the Washington Post. This wasn’t some “stealing the other team’s goal post” prank. This was disturbed, criminal, destructive behavior.
