Interesting response to the UW lawsuit and underage drinking in general
 
I think that the author is a bit scewed to the Greek view of things just from reading the article.

I think this may just be scewed in a good way for a change!

It is nice to see a young adult who has the common sense to perceive what most of us think anyway.:)

I Get get tired of hearing how bad Greek Orgs. and one or the other is getting sued! It is never the son/daughters fault that something happened to them but the Org. that they were assoc. with. Something can happen and not even be with an Org. but, because they are amember, it is that Orgs. fault!:(

I wish this wasn't true.
 
After watching this spring's MTV Greek shows, it's obvious we need more programs like the ones mentioned in the article linked above.

Of course, I suspect the 'sober sis' is not dating much either. I wish this wasn't true.

"There are students who choose to not drink at all, students who drink very little and students who not only abstain from alcohol but are willing to baby-sit drunken peers. There's a neat program at my school, Linfield College in McMinnville, Ore., called Sober Sis, where girls from the sororities stand at the exits of the frats to make sure the women who get trashed out of their minds don't go home with amorous young men"

Cockblocking as a noble ideal? How quaint.

Dude, I think they are talking about the girls that are so hammered they do not know what they are doing. This also protects the guys as well. (i.e. rape that is becuase the girl was too drunk)
