UC Davis Band Marches Into Trouble

Director blows whistle on students' stripping, boozy debauchery

Share

(Newser) – At a trumpet player's cry of "naked van", unruly band members at the University of California Davis stripped to their skivvies on a trip, ignoring their director's orders to get dressed, reports the San Francisco Chronicle. The prank fell so flat with the director that he's filed a complaint with the administration, citing several "disturbing and offensive" behaviors that he says has driven him to take stress leave.
