. Poor Prof wasn't long for Jesuit after the hammer came down on Boudreaux. That was pretty shocking. The rumor I heard was that Boudreaux had been covering for Prof for years.

interesting, I forgot about the Boudreaux thing

I enjoyed Prof as a teacher. I can still recite the first 10 lines of Caesar's Gallic War

Latin I: Fitzgerald
Latin II: Prof
Latin III: Boudreaux
Latin IV: Knight
Latin V: Prof

Top was livid that day. I remember standing at assembly after schools getting the bulletin read to all of us. Talk about miserable.

Oh and I actually like Hanemann. I ran into him with a friend maybe a year ago


I saw Robin Hanemann walking alongside the 610 Stompers during Thoth I think? He's not a Stomper but walks with them as security.

I used to work with him at Wendy's Causeway when we were in high school.

Regardless of what people thought of him as a teacher, he was always a good guy.

Was anyone there when that douche senior brought the chlorine bomb in the glass jar to school and it exploded in his bag in the second floor before homeroom in the morning? I think I was a sophomore at the time and sitting in the third floor, but felt the vibrations from the explosion? Dumbass was messing with it in his bag and it blew up on him and screwed up his hand.

I was in 8th grade that year. May of 93. Then the next year, the class of 94 cut the trees down. I'm pretty good friends with some of them, and they're really successful guys now. That was easily the biggest deal in my 5 years there. Followed closely by the guy who's name escapes me (Fontana maybe?) that spoke at an assembly telling us all to slash our parents' tires while going on an environmental rant. Coach Sam and Mr. Frederick ended up taking him down in the Chapel of the North American Martyrs, and he got led away in handcuffs.

I started in 2001 and the tree incident was still being talked about. Must've been nuts when it happened.

I would've paid to have seen this.

Class of 97? The trees and the Fontanna moments were two of the most outrageous things I have ever witnessed. The Fontanna thing was like a movie.

I used to get to school early around 6:30-6:45, and I clearly remember walking through the yard seeing the trees down. No one laughed or thought it was clever. The entire senior class had to come to school every day and just sit in the auditorium after they were supposed to have been finished until the responsible guys confessed. I found out years later that they had some attorneys negotiating on their behalf the whole time. They actually got their diplomas, but didn't walk on stage.

None of us got to see it. They rushed us out into the yard. None of us 13-14 year olds had any idea what was going on at that moment.

Ms. Rogers. I was in the classroom when she actually snapped. Started ranting about how she was a flamenco dancer in her youth and her penance was teaching highschool boys.

It got real awkward and quiet and she never came back. She was always kind of a nutcase and then she just snapped.

No, we didn't have to come and sit in the auditorium every day till the responsible parties confessed. It was the big group of jock assholes who hung out under the resource center before it was closed in. We only had to go one day where the NOPD threatened a criminal investigation into who cut the trees down. And some of them did walk the stage to get their diplomas, only the poor ones did not walk the stage. The attorney negotiating on their behalf also ran against Cannizaro in the Orleans District Attorney's race. At Jesuit, money talks and bullshite walks.

Holy shite I forgot about that. I was way after that, but we were shown the video of the speech in Mr Powers English class I think. Hilarious. Dude just ranted about CIA conspiracies and then they tried to sound the bell to cut him off, and he freaked out. "I wish I could say that the CIA and the FBI didn't have Kennedy killed... (Yada Yada I can't remember)... but I can't!" Dude started out kind of lucid, and then went off the deep end.

Was he a crazy alumnus or something?

Wow, yeah I never heard specifics.

I remember she bolted mid year. I bet the other English teachers who had to fill in during their otherwise off periods were thrilled.

You mentioned Mr. Powers earlier. Sadly, I never had him. I had Ms. Allison for English I and then Mr. Wilson for English III. Both were great teachers. Both have passed on unfortunately. I only heard good things about Powers as well. Jesuit's English department was solid.

I had Ms. Allison in 8th grade when she got sick halfway through the year. She was a bit of a character but also a very sweet woman. You could tell that she was one of those people who genuinely cared for her students and prayed for them. It was sad to see her go.
