This same exact thing happend on the University of Oregon campus last fall. A lot of the reason it happend was because it was the first weekend of school, and the fraternities were just recently forced to go dry. Everyone wanted to party, and there were about 2 or 3 residential house parties that couldn't hold all the people. People were then left to roam the streets, and so they started a riot cause they weren't being let in to any of the house parties..there was just no room. The police came, threw tear gas everywhere. They were shooting blanks at students to clear the streets...it was absolutely ridiculous. The cops blew it way out of proportion and arrested so many innocent bystanders. Me and my friends actually got a tear gas can thrown at us just because we were looking at the burning mattress. Cops need to just chill, and students need to stop burning mattresses, haha. So funny that this happend at UW too.
