Silence is golden, school officials hope
FROM STAFF AND WIRE REPORTS
The chapel isn’t the only place where silence is expected at one Rhode Island
Catholic school.
The Saint Rose of Lima School in Warwick has new lunch rules that
require students to remain silent during lunch.
The move comes after three recent choking incidents in the school cafeteria.
All three students are fine —but school Principal Jeannine Fuller said in a letter
to parents that “the school’s priority is the safety of each child.”
Students who don’t follow the policy will receive a lunch detention. Providence Diocese
spokesman Michael Guilfoyle says the school is enacting a temporary safety measure. He
says the school doesn’t expect complete silence but enough quiet to keep students safe.
NOTED. A small Illinois college says it
would consider issuing anew, fireproof honor
ary degree to simmer down last spring’s com
mencement speaker, satirist Stephen Colbert.
The arch-browed comic threatened to burn
the honorary doctorate of fine arts he received
last year after Knox College landed former
President Bill Clinton as next June’s gradua
tion speaker.
