In a world where privileged teens get their own nightclub, the idea that senior prom has turned into a contest to see who’s dick is bigger should surprise nobody, let alone a Catholic school. (Have they not learned that young boys of any age enjoy a good romp? Okay, we went too far there.)

A second Long Island high school announced it was canceling prom because the year-end event was no longer about “togetherness and farewells,” but about who arrives in the biggest limo, who’s dress broke five figures and which after party has the purest coke.

Now let’s listen to Chaminade High School president the Rev. James Williams spin his decision:

Williams admitted that many students expressed disappointment when the announcement was made. But he said students seemed to have accepted the school’s position, and many even agree with its arguments.

Both Chaminade and Kellenberg have encouraged students to develop alternative ideas to celebrate the year’s end.

Sure, there are the obvious carnivals, charity fundraisers and haute couture runways shows that could be organized instead, but our faith in the credit card caste of kids leads us to believe they’ll just start their prom night with the promiscuous sex and lines of coke instead of waiting till the spiked punch runs out.
