University of Mich. Students Vandalize Resort.

DOVER TOWNSHIP, Mich. — A University of Michigan fraternity has apologized after officials at a ski resort say its members caused thousands of dollars in vandalism.

Treetops Resort manager Barry Owens said the students were escorted from the premises by Michigan State Police last weekend after causing $50,000 in damage. The resort is in Dover Township near Gaylord.

"They caused an excessive amount of damage," Owens said. "The rooms were just a pigsty. Unfortunately, I've been in this business for 30 years and it's the worst condition of rooms that I've ever seen. There were broken ceiling tiles in the hallway, broken furniture, broken windows. There's carpet that's going to need to be replaced."

"A lot of the rooms were just very, very dirty," he said. "There were holes in the walls and different things like that. They were very disruptive to additional guests that were here."

Owens said prior to the students being removed, resort staff attempted to rectify the situation.

"We tried to address it with them, but we made a mistake and took these people at their word when they said they would change their behavior," he said.

Did this happen after the University of Michigan won a math contest?

Sounds like a fun party!

Hey TC are you mad because they went to a better college than you did?

Self centered inconsiderate pricks.

I hope the students involved are charged with destruction of property are held to the full extent of the law:

'Generally, malicious destruction of a building over $20,000 is a felony that carries a penalty of 10 years and/or a $15,000 fine, or three times the amount of destruction or injury, whichever is greater, Rola said.'

I've read that this frat has been suspended and further punishments may follow. There were other frats at this resort and another location that had similar issues. I hope all these spoiled brats get what they deserve. If you want to read more, there is a story at this link.

Probably not. Students tend to be overwhelmingly Democrat. These students are scum, pure and simple.

Yea I saw this and it looks awful. Those students should have to pay for every shred of damage they did to that building. How can people not behave themselves?

Not sure what TC is trying to prove with this thread

That's why I prefer to hang out with students who have to work, have a family to mind, and are dead serious about maintaining a high GPA. They don't have time for this crap.

Some of them are. The majority aren't though. At most colleges and universities I've been to, there are students who worked full time and took up classes in the evening. Some of them are married and have family. I fell under both categories. It's natural that I hang out with them. We don't have time to spend goofing off and looking stupid.
