the chicago haze

[~Tropical Punch 19~]

Did anyone hear about that big ordeal at a subruben Chicago school? There was a powderpuff football game against the juniors and seniors, and apparently it is a traditio for the seniors to throw pig intenstines and crap on the junoirs. However this year it got out of hand and the senoirs started putting the crap in the girls mouth and strangeled them with the intestines. Theyw ere kicking them and 5 girls had to go to the hospital. The thing that gets me is that hardly anybody tried to stop it, they just stood around watching.

A county and a suburb are two different things. Cook County is the county that all of Chicago and most of the right-out-of-the-city-limits suburbs are located in. Nice try though.

WTF?!? Intestines and sh*t shouldnt even be part of a tradition-- where the hell is the school boards heads-- up their ass?!? The seniors deserved to be thrown out of school-- strangling and putting sh*t and their mouth?! Meangya if that was my school my mom would kick their ass personally.

Students face discipline in hazing case

Having watched videotapes of what one school administrator called the "deplorable" hazing of young women during a touch football game that escalated into punching, shoving and mud-lobbing, Glenbrook North High School officials today said they are considering disciplinary action against some students.

Though the incident happened off campus, students who are members of extracurricular activities and athletics could be disciplined for violating the Code of Conduct they signed at the beginning of the school year, said Diane Freeman, spokeswoman for Northfield Township High School District 225, which includes Glenbrook North.

Police also are viewing the tapes and are considering criminal charges in the incident, which sent five girls with minor injuries to a local hospital. One participant sustained a broken ankle, and another had to receive stitches to her head, authorities said.

The fracas erupted at a powder-puff football game, played secretly in the Chipilly Woods Forest Preserve about 11 a.m. Sunday, authorities said. About 100 people were present as senior girls from the north suburban school hazed their junior counterparts.

Officials at the Northbrook high school emphasized the game occurred off campus and without their knowledge.

Senior girls invited junior girls to participate in the event, even charging them money and supplying them with a T-shirt beforehand, officials said.

"It was hazing. It was deplorable treatment," said District 225 Supt. Dave Hales. "I guess there was some football involved, but then it was pushing, punching, hitting, putting buckets on heads … showering people with debris and, according to one report, human excrement."

School officials are cooperating with Cook County Forest Preserve District police in investigating the incident.

Hales said he was baffled why students participated in what appears to be a nonofficial tradition. The district in 1977 ended its annual powder-puff event during Homecoming because students had gotten too rough in their behavior.

"I think it gets carried over not as a school event, something we would never condone, by some small group of kids who think it's a rite of passage," Hales said.

"My question (to the students) is, where are your values? Where is your self-esteem? Why would you pay money to go to something where you know you will be treated inappropriately and humiliated and possibly injured?"
