Nice! So legally owned guns can be seized now. Wonderful, just wonderful.
Here's a news flash kid. They DON'T CARE! They don't care that both of you could have been killed. They just don't care...

That blows, but they agreed to the terms of their lease
Sad but true
Yep. Their own stupidity.
For some reason I don't imagine that the lease agreement gave the school the right to confiscate legally owned property, but perhaps I'm wrong.
My lease agreement states that I can't have pets in my house. If my landlord discovers that I have a dog, he can kick me out of the house. Nowhere does it say that he can key his way into the house and steal my dog.
Expel them and kick them out of their apartment, but when you enter the home and steal firearms you are now a thief.
It depends on the exact agreement. Some schools use a licensing agreement. On that agreement it has things like staff members can enter your apartment upon discovering a violation of housing policy or something similar. I do not agree with what happened to the students. They just need to remember to read the agreement.
Are you privy to Gonzaga's off-campus apartment lease?

I would have thought that the most Gonzaga could do is order an eviction vice seizing private property, particularly in an off-campus apartment. Even if a clause exists in a lease one still possesses basic rights and due process still applies.
Here's what Gonzaga's website says about the university owned off-campus apartments:
Housing Off Campus but Owned by the University:
The Office of Housing and Residence Life manages and operates 26 rental and theme houses and 4 apartment buildings in the off-campus neighborhood adjacent to Gonzaga University. These properties have been acquired in recent years as a means of providing additional living opportunities for juniors, senior, graduate, law, married students, and students with children.
Because of the proximity to campus, and moderate pricing, as well as the peace of mind associated with a "university as landlord" relationship, the number of applications that are received every year for these properties far outweigh the number of available spaces. Preference, therefore, is given only to registered Gonzaga students, who have fulfilled the University's two year on-campus living requirement or are above 21 years of age. Incoming freshman, and sophomore status students are not eligible for off-campus housing.
Apartments are furnished similarly to on-campus facilities, while houses are unfurnished. Each fall students apply in groups to be a theme house for the following school year. The apartment facilities vary in location and style. Some are one bedroom, some two. Some are ground floor, others third floor.
In all units, Students are responsible for their own utilities with the exception of water, sewer, and garbage. In the apartment facilities cable and Internet are also provided.
For further information on Gonzaga University's off-campus properties, residency requirements or to obtain an application, please contact Nicholas Grainger, Residence Director, at (509) 313-4103 or through e-mail [email protected].

I imagine the only way to get a copy of the an actual lease is to request one from the university or if an enterprising university student were to post one in it's entirety.
