Does 11 people hanging out count as a “party?”
Northeastern University dismissed 11 students Friday after they held a small party in a hotel room Wednesday, the school announced in a press release. The 11 students “are no longer part of the Northeastern community for the fall semester.”
All 11 kids were first-years and part of a special one-semester program that cost $36,500, the Boston Globe reported. Northeastern is not refunding their money.
The students were enrolled in a study abroad program, but because of the coronavirus pandemic, “abroad” became the Westin Hotel in downtown Boston, about a mile from campus, according to the release.
The students held a small get-together in one room without social distancing or masks, in violation of Northeastern’s new coronavirus protocols, and were busted by campus monitors.
Now, the students have been told to pack their bags, get tested for COVID-19, hopefully test negative and go home, according to the Globe. They will be allowed to return to campus for spring semester.

Social media.
3 of these morons cannot get together without letting the world know exactly where they are and what they are doing.
a student named Karen that didn’t get invited to the party?
Good point.
I was always one to keep my plans to myself.
Only those who needed to know were in on my plan.
I still don’t go to social media and post pictures of my meals or where I am on social media.
That seems rather vain to me.
“Oh, look at me! I’m at the Steak House eating a two pound Porter House!”
You gotta fight, for your right, to party.
$36,000 barely covers hookers and blow for a junior varsity after-game mixer. Times are tough!
You can expel them as a punishment for not wearing masks but it is theft to keep their money if you are not providing services.
Might teach them a lesson in freedom.

What lesson? That they don’t have any freedom? Can a school mandate your behavior when your not even on the campus?
They'll pay it back, because their lawyers will charge them that much in a losing effort to fight $36 million lawsuits.
Was this the only party held at or near Northeastern University that night?
As an Uber driver, I was driving around the University of Kentucky campus last night. You should see how busy the students are there, when the frats and sororities hold their parties.
What were campus monitors doing at a Westin Hotel about a mile from campus.
Somebody snitched on these students.
Or it was a snare or an entrapment.
This really stinks.

Bait and switch by the university, which monitors them to find some offense to dismiss them ad keep 400 grand for doing nothing.
Yep, cumulative Grand Larceny!
We will see other universities pulling similar scams on native born and foreign born student/s
Those mask police/paid karens are rough.
