(We are not arguing, we are discussing.)

I have been wrong before so it wouldn't surprise me if I am here too.

However, I don't know that there are specific rules on the inter/national level for any NIC/IFC (I'm guessing NPC and perhaps NPHC too) regarding drinking in letters. Having said that, I am sure there are rules (guidelines) about doing so on the chapter level. But as you noted, even your chapter had the exception with respect to wearing party shirts.

I would venture to guess that if a GLO forbids drinking in letters, then it would have to apply to all types of letters. Which would include - as an example - wine at convention while members are wearing their badge. And as far as I know, most sororities and fraternities allow that. My point is that the drinking in letters issue has more to do with proper behavior versus specific rules prohibiting drinking in letters.

^^ My mistake. I misread your original post as NPC, not NIC as you wrote. I was fairly sure that the sororities had strict rules about drinking in letters. (It's been a long week and it's only Wednesday.)

oh man, I totally know Cheezy from school/greek life good times.

All I know is that ZTA has very strict policies about it.

None in the house, none w/ letters, none w/badge
Really, you shouldn't drink with anything that says Zeta on it as a good guideline.
I know that the dean of students has been on the warpath at my school - especially against the greek community... even more so on drinking!

Like last weekend, I was going in to buy some wine for a dinner thing we were having with friends. Realized that my only bag with me was my ZTA bag and decided to leave it in the car and take only my wallet. My friend who is in another sorority who was with me did the same thing. It seems that her spies are everywhere and anything with drinking and clearly students gets attention.

Bah!

That doesn't exactly stop people from doing it though.

Not "reality" TV, but there is a SDSU Alpha Phi on Smarter than a fifth grader right now.

I would go on Project Runway except I am to old, can't design or sew but I think it would be fun. Any Greeks ever been on that show? I don't recall any.

That is exactly why you will never be on a reality show. Nobody wants to watch "normal" people. Overly dramatic/assholes/crazy/people with no morals get on reality tv. Thats what makes it "entertaining" to america.

^^^Co-sign. Just watched the replay of the premiere of the new Real World/Road Rules challenge. That group definitely proves the rule. (and yet I still tune in... so something is clearly wrong with ME...)

Someone just posted in the Famous People in your Fraternity/Sorority thread here that Kevin Christiana is a TKE.

I remember a ZTA on Survivor and her luxury item was a crown (that unfortunatley was destroyed in the fire) but she ended up winning that season, so I'd say she represented us well!

Colie from the Real World Denver was a past AEPhi President

Yea Brotha, Ima have to agree with you. I know our chapter has rules that say you are not supposed to drink or swear in your letters. We even have guidelines as the where you can place/wear you letters on your person and places you can not go into with your letters on. But, only alot of the older guys and alumni follow those guideline and it really upsets me when the younger or newer guys don't care. You work so hard to earn those letters and when someone disgraces them by doing something stupid or unbecoming of a Sig in them, that's embarressing.
