[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The University should hold them accountable. ithhold the diplomas and make them provide 20 hours each of community service to the national park service or the district in the form of trash pick up.[/quote]

My aunt moved out of a gorgeous Georgetown townhouse that she had lived in for decades because of the havoc Georgetown students brought upon that neighborhood. Irresponsible, selfish and entitled sums it up well. [/quote]

I’m a Georgetown alum and agree that the behavior at the Lincoln Memorial is totally unacceptable and that the school should hold the students responsible for this accountable (I like PP’s suggestion), but I’ve never understood people who choose to live in West Georgetown and then complain about the students. The university has been there since 1789, and it’s not surprising that college students are going to act like college students. Not excusing property damage or harrassment or anything like that, but loud/obnoxious behavior at night or on the weekends and drunkenness are to be expected. I wouldn’t live around there now exactly for that reason.[/quote]
