I agree that putting a mattress in front of an exit was tres dumb, but that really has nothing to do with the issue at hand. Perhaps if these kids could either a) gather in their home without fear of getting harassed or b) go out to a BAR they wouldn't have had to resort to such tactics. I have no idea how big the house was that had 100 guests, but some of these 3 story plus basement houses can accomodate that many people among the floors easily.
Oh, and I wasn't aware that West Chester was so affluent, but the majority of Clarion students are on financial aid, paying for their own tuition/housing and often working 2-3 jobs to support themselves. I guess that's why we don't have the money to rent halls and bars to have parties in.
This isn't just about the right of 18-20 year olds to "get a load on" (now there's an attractive phrase). It's about the inanity of society granting all adult rights but one to 18 year olds. (see: 18 year old voting argument)
