It's a college; not a prison. That's ridiculous for anyone to expect 100% of undergraduates to live on-campus. Please find me another institution of a size similar to Gtown that has 100% on-campus housing rates.

I feel badly for current gtown students. It seems like they are getting attacked from two fronts: the hostile (and delusional) gtown residents and an administration that is intent on policing their every single move.

And I hate to recycle this old argument, but the only reason it reappears is because of the enormous truth to it: NOBODY living near the university can claim ignorance as an excuse. The university has been there a long time and is not going anywhere. If you hate it so much, then just MOVE. The argument would be no different if I moved into those new condos that are about to open across from the GW emergency room and then complained about the sirens late at night. Can't the ambulances turn their sirens off when they are a couple of blocks from the hospital? Can't we reduce the number of people admitted to the ER every night?
