Students Punished for Throwing `Holocaust Party'

[Nachtengel]

Lincoln University near Christchurch has reprimanded 15 students who dressed as Nazis and concentration camp inmates for a party, with penalties including visiting a Holocaust Museum and paying a $200 fine. The university disciplinary committee met on Friday to consider the conduct of the students, who pleaded guilty to the charge of bringing discredit on the university. The committee ruled the students had to: Visit the Holocaust Museum in Wellington and possibly the German Embassy at their own expense; Pay a fine of $200; Submit a 2000 word essay on a topic determined by the chair of the committee; Two students who wore the most offensive T-shirts also had to complete 150 hours of community service for the university.

So what did they do wrong?

At this point I would quit the university. They do not have to be treated like this, as it is outside the law.

Also I love this line: "penalties including visiting a Holocaust Museum".
