There's no real excuse for this kind of behavior. But, in terms of the kids knowing about the Chicago situation, when our son came home from college for the summer, he had no idea of what had happened in the hazing incident. Remember that these things happened around finals week -- and the kids can be pretty insulated.
Those last few weeks of senior year consist of meetings, ceremonies, tests, parties and all kinds of other things. I wouldn't have any trouble believeing these kids weren't aware of the Chicago situation.
Having said that, they still went way beyond the bounds of acceptable.
