Of course, the intelligence level of those involved becomes more obvious after reading quotes from several students in the article....

“'People were just going insane,' University first-year student Laura Swenson said. 'I went crowd surfing, which was completely awesome.'”

Explaining why he rolled three trash bins from sorority houses into the bonfire, third year student Seth had to say, "'I'm not doing it to be destructive, I just can’t stand police brutality.'"

And perhaps the top two quotes come from senior/moron Mark McSherry: "'People burn stuff because the cops keep chasing us and they keep Macing us. We’re going break stuff until they quit chasing us.'" and "'Riots are some of the top three memorable college times of my life. When else do you see all these students come together to do one thing?'"

I'm proud of my school, and I'm happy for the men's hockey team, but the rioting is among the stupidest things the students do all year long. They won't come together to protest rising tuition costs, less funding from the state legislature, or any other important matter, but the moment the hockey team wins a championship they're out there trashing campus and the surrounding businesses. Seeing all the cars they overturned and burned this year, I was lucky to get away with just a broken driver's-side mirror last year.
