As a resident of Capitol Hill during the riots, I certainly think Gonzaga
was affected because of its location, but St. John's which is west of the
Park in an up-scale neighborhood in upper NW would not have been affected,
in my opinion. Students at St. Johns from parts of the city west of the park
(Rock Creek) would have been affected, but the campus would not.  This is a
surmise since I did not visit either campus during the riots, but was busy
protecting my family.
