#1 I recall students (and I use the term loosely) setting off fire alarms in my school (in order to delay/avoid taking an exam, usually), but they never went so far as to actually burn the place down.

#2 The military has said that the NPA's manpower has fallen from a peak of more than 26,000 in early 1987, to below 5,000

Many of those who left the NPA went the route that other communists in other countries did, and entered academia or the government (ask Gloria about the latter...).
