#1 Ah, poor Hoagland. Did that mean old Pope Benedict shut down your liberation theology classes? How dare he! Damn these rich kids. Don't they know there are starving children in Honduras, Peru, etc.

Hmmm...can't find enough guilt in normal Catholicism to sell?

#2 Nice try, Mr. Principal, but what's to stop the seniors' parents from putting on a prom for them somewhere off school property?

If they've got the $20,000 to rent a house for post-prom party, they've surely got the money to rent a hotel ballroom.

Better luck on the next idea, though.

#3 sounds like a rich neighborhood desperately trying to prove who's got more than their neighbor. Not exactly the teachings of Christ or a Catholic school. Good for the principal, although it won't dent the lifestyles of Reginald and Buffy, I'm sure

#4 Let them do it on their own dime, but it won't have the imprimature of the school and implicitly the chruch.

People who believe in something need to stand up for it even when the effort may appear futile. In fact, the futile stand is a more powerful statement than the successful.

#5 Exactly my thought, TO2602.

#6 exactly - nobody's stopping them on their own time, obviously money isn't the issue either.
