The Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel reported Sept. 18 that the students from Greendale High School were suspended after someone wrote a note to an assistant principal at the school tipping him off to the website. Assistant principal Brad Iding "proceeded to check those sites and, sure enough, there were pictures of students evidently involved in partying with beer and every type of alcohol you can think of," said principal Peter deRubeis.

Accompanying photos showed the students in their sports uniforms and featured other school-related items.

DeRubeis said that students face consequences for posting such material on the Internet, but some parents disagreed with the suspensions. "There was one e-mail that was talking about it's the kids' site and they should be able to put there what they want to," DeRubeis said. "But I think that's a little shortsighted."
