Teach them to edit /etc/systemd/journald.conf and you teach them how to solve the problem permanently.

More specifically: Activate the SystemMaxUse= option there, e.g. as SystemMaxUse=100M to only use 100 MB.

After editing, use service systemd-journald restart to activate the changed configuration. This will remove the excess logs.

journald.confalso has other options that might be useful.
