I admit I feel a little hypocritical, I grew up in the 60's and 70's and it's not like I didn't partake of the ganga. But these kids were on scholarship, they were ambassadors for the school and they were expected to conduct themselves appropriately. These kids found out the hard way there are consequences. It really hurts the team and puts another black eye on the school. Pearl did the right thing and I'm hopeful these two kids can get things turned around somewhere else.
