[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Was it ever clarified that they lived in campus housing,? [/quote]
Yes, when Larry got out of jail he crashed in their campus housing. It looked like a house with several bedrooms so no RA or anything to put the kibosh on having your ex-con psycho dad move in. [/quote]

But was it official campus housing? As in, if someone reported it, he would have been kicked out? [/quote]
Yes the dorm was Slonim Woods, but it was apartment style and decentralized. If nobody complained, there didn’t seem to be a ton of oversight. [/quote]

If you read the original story in The Cut - can't link to it free anymore - one of the parents? a few people? did complain but it was downplayed and they were told that Ray was just visiting his daughter.

I am the Op of the thread on the article - [url]https://www.dcurbanmom.com/jforum/posts/list/801576.page[/url]

And my comment was "While I definitely get why the parents couldn't intervene later, and perhaps I'm a helicopter parent, but if my 19 year old daughter came home and told me her roommate's dad was spending nights/living in the dorm/house, I would not have left it at the school shrugging their shoulders at me."

I don't think the parents did anything wrong, but it's a way different mindset than my own and of my friends with college age kids.[/quote]
But you saw that the parents didn’t all have money, so they wouldn’t have necessarily been checking in on the dorms. There’s no doubt that SL should definitely have been more aware, but they all admitted they smoked a ton of pot and weren’t really bothered at first. Larry did a ton of cooking and pizza parties and crashed on the couch at first.  It’s not exactly the same but we had plenty of boyfriends/out of town friends sleep in our dorm room for a weekend or whatever and I NEVER would have told my parents. [/quote]

PP here. Yes, I agree with you. I don't blame the parents.[/quote]
